GoI playing with Asiya’s life: DeM

Srinagar, July 27: The acting chairperson of Dukhtaran-e-Milat Riff’at Fatima has expressed serious concern over the deteriorating health of party’s incarcerated chief Asiya Andrabi, alleging that the Government of India was playing with her life.
 Asiya is currently undergoing treatment at SKIMS, Soura, here.
 “Due to denial of proper medical aid in jail for the past one year, Asiya suffered acute degeneration of joints. The pain in her joints grew so severe that she could not move her limbs and got dependent on others for every routine work,” said Rifa’at in a statement on Wednesday, adding that the agencies were sparing no efforts to prolong her detention.
 “The public prosecutor is making a deliberate delay in filing the objections to petition regarding the quashing of her (Asiya’s) detention under PSA for the third consecutive time. This is all done to prolong her detention,” alleged Riffa’at.
 Riffa’at has termed the continued detention of Asiya’s husband, Dr Muhammad Qasim, as a “political reprisal” by the government.
