Srinagar, Jun 04 (KNS): Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir vehemently denounces the government for its repressive policy of arresting the pro-freedom leadership and activists which has no moral or legal justification and is quite against the basic democratic principles which it falsely claims to uphold.
In a statement issued to KNS, Advocate Zahid Ali said in a real democratic setup, everybody has a fundamental right to express his views and aspirations and curbing this right by enacting and imposing the black laws like PSA, AFSPA etc is one of the worst forms of dictatorship and imperialism and Kashmir has been witnessing this type of governance since 1947 after its forced occupation.
Jama’at also denounces the police action of using forces against the protestors near Jamia Masjid and firing of tear gas shells inside the premises of the said Masjid which is a blatant intervention into the religious matters which is quite against the basic human norms.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
Jama’at-e-Islami (JeI) strongly criticizes the unjustified apprehension of Hurriyat leaders which includes the continued house arrest of the octogenarian leader Syed Ali Geelani and re-arrest of JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik. Jama’at also demands immediate and unconditional release of all these leaders including those who have been languishing in different jails for years together. (KNS)
