Jammu Kashmir National Front (NF) today alleged that ailing Kashmiri detainees in Tihar Jail, New Delhi, were denied proper medical aid.
“Besides, the Hovernment of India is sparing no efforts to prolong the incarceration of Kashmiri prisoners including NF chairman Nayeem Ahmad Khan,” the NF spokesman said in a statement.
“Nayeem Khan and other leaders imprisoned in Tihar jail, Delhi, are denied proper medical treatment. The denial of proper medical aid to the ailing leaders by the jail authorities has endangered their lives. The Irony is that government of India is using different tactics to continuously keep them behind bars as it (govt) has no political answers to their just political stance about Kashmir issue,” the spokesman said.
Terming the plight of Kashmiri political prisoners lodged in different jails as ‘seriously alarming’, the spokesman said, “The jail authorities are subjecting them to inhuman treatment and the plight of political prisoners has now reached to a dangerous point.”
He stressed upon the human rights organisations to play their role in getting the Kashmiri prisoners out of the jails.
