Srinagar, Nov 23 (KNS): Incarcerated chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), Muhammad Yasin Malik on Friday condemned the ongoing massacre of Kashmiris by Indian forces and police.
Malik as per a statement issued to KNS said that “brutal assassination of political leaders and activists like Mir Hafiz-u-Allah and unrelenting spree of killings of young Kashmiris across the valley amounts to annihilation of an entire generation.”
“Willful killing machine has gone out of control in Kashmir but no one in the international community seems to bother or take a serious note of it,” he said.
Malik said that brutal assassination of resistance leader, Mir Hafizullah has created ‘a big void’ in the ranks of resistance camp and “we all are in a state of mourning on his untimely departure.”
“Brutal assassination of political leaders and activists like Mir Hafiz-u-Allah and unrelenting spree of killings of young Kashmiris across the valley actually amounts to annihilation of an entire generation and Indian colonial mindset with all its might is continuing this genocide in the name of operation all out,” he said.
“Forces have unleashed a rampage against Kashmiris as crackdowns, killings, beating torturing and humiliating common people, incarcerating political activists, leaders and students and other oppressive measures have been expedited in recent months and all this is being done to suppress democratic voices of Kashmiris, which is highly condemnable,” he said.
Terming the recent shifting of Kashmiri inmates as ‘most autocratic and atrocious act’, Malik said that “terrorizing, tormenting and torturing inmates and their families is illegal, obnoxious and most reprehensible act.”
