Srinagar, 15 Nov (KNS): Jammu Kashmir Democratic Freedom Party has strongly rejected as trash the so called charges against its incarcerated chief, Shabir Ahmad Shah.
The statement issued to KNS said that Shah is being targeted for his just political stance about Kashmir dispute that is why first a media trial was launched against him and later he was booked under an old case which has already been decided by a court.
“The government of India has started a campaign of character assassination against the well known resistance leader of Jammu and Kashmir so it is using old and already decided cases,” the party statement said.
The statement while expressing concern over the deteriorating health of Shah, said that instead of providing him better health assistance, he is being harassed by so called charge sheets.
Quoting reports from Tihar jail, the party statement said that Shabir Shah’s health condition has deteriorated to such an extent that he fell down two days back and was helped by other inmates as he had gone unconscious.
The party has stated that oppressive measures like detaining leaders like Shabir Shah won’t help instead will deteriorate further the already tense situation.
The statement said that unless the Kashmir issue was resolved in line with the aspirations of Kashmiris, there can neither be peace nor stability in the south Asian region nor any oppressive measure can yield any results. (KNS)
