Hurriyat Conference (M) on Friday said that the “aggressive policy” and approach of New Delhi towards the people of Kashmir is becoming ‘more brutal and aggressive’ as almost every day Kashmiri youth are being killed and targeted ‘ruthlessly’.
In a statement here a spokesman of Hurriyat (M) urged the world community including UN, OIC and other organisations across the globe to take serious note of “unabated human rights violations, killings, maiming and thrashing of youth, men and women, arrest of leaders and slapping them with the PSA” which has spread fear in every nook and corner of the Valley.
The spokesman castigated the government for imposing “curfew” across downtown for the third consecutive day and locking down of historic Jamia Masjid, for 2nd consecutive week and 15th time this year by disallowing the people from offering the congregational prayers on Fridays.
The spokesman also denounced the continuous house confinement of its chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq there by barring him from carrying out his social, religious and political activities and termed it as ‘sheer vendetta’. “Hurting the religious sentiments of people of Kashmir time and again by barring congregational prayers at the Jama Masjid is highly unacceptable and calls for condemnation at all levels,” he said.
The spokesman urged the global organisations fighting for the religious freedom to take serious note of frequent forcible closure of Kashmir’s main mosque.
The spokesman also condemned the forces action at Trichal village in Pulwama
Meanwhile, on the directions of Mirwaiz, a high level delegation led by senior Hurriyat and Awami Action Committee leader Ghulam Nabi Zaki visited the houses of Mehrajudin Bangroo, Rayees Sofi and Faid Mushtaq Waza at Fateh kadal and Khanyar and expressed solidarity with the bereaved families.
