Jamaat demands to probe all innocent killings of Kashmir
Jammu/Srinagar, February 06 (Scoop News) – CPI (M) State Secretary and MLA Kulgam has strongly denounced the killing of a 21- year old man allegedly in an army ambush in Handwara. He also condemned the brutal killing of two sisters in Sopore last week, terming the incident gross violation of human rights violations with no place in civilized societies.
In a statement issued here today, Tarigami asked the government to take stern measures for bringing killers to justice. “Killing of innocents is worst form of human rights violations which must be resisted strongly”, he said and added that it was very unfortunate that Kashmiris continue to lose their young population despite popular government in place.
He said the government must not act as a mute spectator to this heinous scene of death and destruction rather it should move fast to identify the killers and bring them to justice. Mere condemnation of the incident is not solution to the problem, he said.
“The oft repeated claims of tall leaders of the country and the State regarding zero tolerance to human rights violations must be translated into action”, he said calling for taking appropriate steps to punish the culprits perpetrating atrocities. He demanded exemplary punishment to the offenders to avoid recurrence of such incidents. Any negligence in this regard will be criminal; he remarked and called for coordinated efforts to stem the rot.
Meanwhile Jamaat-e-Islami, J&K also strongly denounced the killing of a 21- year old man allegedly in an army ambush in Handwara.
Zahid Ali,spokesperson Jamaat-e-Islami J&K said that the killing of another Kashmiri youth Manzoor Ahmad Magray of Gund Chogal, Handwara by the Indian Army is an undisputable proof of open aggression on the Kashmiri people,
He said that the local police and judiciary become mute spectators in such circumstances and are not even allowed to speak the truth. Under the present legal set-up of India, it is the duty of the police to apprehend such culprit personnel and produce after investigation, the charge-sheet before the competent court of law for deliverance of justice.
Zahid Ali said that Jamaat-e-Islami, J&K, while vehemently demanding an immediate revocation of all draconian laws including the AFSPA, urges the government of India to take a stern action against the culprits in Handwara and other such incidents in order to create a sense of security amongst the Kashmiris. Further, Jamaat demands setting up of an impartial high level judicial commission to probe all such incidents including Jalil Andrabi, Wamiq Farooq, Zahid Farooq,Asiya Neelofar, Manzoor Magray murder cases, Machil encounter, Wandhama massacare, Pathribal incident, etc so as to expose the reality before people.
