January 11, 2021

In Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K), the Tehreek-e-Wahdat-e-Islami has demanded of the United Nations to set up a special tribunal to probe the killing of innocent Kashmiri youth in fake encounters by Indian troops.

The Tehreek-e-Wahdat-e-Islami spokesman in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the Indian troops had martyred hundreds of youth in fake encounters in different areas of occupied Jammu and Kashmir during the past 33 years.

He said that last year, Indian Army Captain Bhupinder Singh had killed three Rajouri youth in a fake encounter in Amshipura area of Shopian district.

The spokesman said that the police had confirmed in its charge-sheet filed in the court that Captain Bhupinder Singh had killed the youth in the fake encounter to get a reward of rupees two million.

Meanwhile, the Bar Association, in a meeting held under the chair of Advocate Nazir Ahmad Rongahas in Srinagar demanded an impartial probe into the killing of three innocent students by the Indian troops in a fake encounter in Srinagar.

On the other hand, Jammu and Kashmir People’s Movement has strongly condemned the cold-blooded murder of three boys by Indian troops saying fake encounters have become a new normal in the territory.

Meanwhile, in a statement in Srinagar, the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference leader and Member of Indian Parliament Justice retired Hasnain Masoodi has urged fascist Modi government for reversal of illegal actions of 5th August 2019 in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
