Srinagar, Nov 06 (KNS): Hurriyat (M) Sunday strongly denounced the raid by police and government forces on the house of Muzaffar Ahmad Qasba of Rainawari area of Shehar-e-Khas Srinagar to arrest his wife Shaista for participating in pro freedom protests.
In a statement issued to KNS, the spokesman termed it as a desperate and shameless attempt on the part of government that even women are being persecuted and harassed for expressing their political aspirations and are a threat to the "great Indian state."
Spokesman also condemned the authorities for use of brute force against a women’s procession in the locality protesting the raid and attempted arrest.
He hailed the courage and determination of the mourners who were carrying the dead body of 16-year-old Qaiser Hameed toward his ancestral graveyard when the trigger-happy and blood-thirsty forces went berserk , firing teargas shells and pellets at the mourners did not let the body of the martyr fall from their shoulders.
Spokesperson said this incident should open the eyes of the Government of India and their local collaborators in Jammu Kashmir that despite being at the receiving end of such violence and inhumanity which words fail to describe, people of Jammu Kashmiris are committed and passionate toward the ongoing resistance movement and will not rest till they achieve their right to self-determination.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
