JKLF Will Soon Issue a Comprehensive Protest Program Against This Indian Oppressive Behavior
Yasin Malik While Reacting to Media Reports About Indian Defense Minister Being Against Reopening Pathribal Case.
Srinagar: The killers of innocent Kashmiris cannot evade punishment and will have to face justice. Kashmiri don’t care what Mr. Antony or anybody else thinks. We will not let our protest rest till the killers of Pathribal are brought to justice. This was stated by the chairman JKLF Mohammad Yasin Malik who has left for Jammu to attend a court case there, while reacting to the media reports in which it is said that Indian defense Minister Mr A K Antony is against reopening the case against 5 Indian army officers who have been charged of killing 6 innocent Kashmiris in cold blood at Pathribal in year 2000.
Yasin Malik while deliberating on the issue said that the Indian army’s decision of giving clean chit to its killer officers of Pathribal massacre and now reports of defense minister being against reopening the case is all part of Indian oppressive attitude towards the people of Jammu Kashmir.
Yasin Malik said that after army’s clean chit to killers of Pathribal, pro- India politicians and rulers of Jammu Kashmir started their stage theater of portraying of being against the army decision. These politicians did same in the case of Shaheed Mohammad Afzal Guru, 2008 and 2010 innocent killings and other massacres. This all is done under a well planned program to diffuse the tension and after the situation gets normal we always hear statements like that of Mr. Antony etc.
Yasin Malik said that clean chit by Indian army to its killer officers who murdered innocent Kashmiri’s at Pathribal in year 2000 is like justifying the genocide of Kashmiri’s. Killing civilians in the name of foreign militants and then giving killers clean chit is an ugly stain on the Indian democracy and has clearly revealed the fact that Kashmir is governed by army and police. Yasin Malik said that kashmiris will not watch this oppression silently .the killers of innocent Kashmiris cannot evade punishment and will have to face justice. He said that Kashmiri don’t care what Mr. Antony or anybody else thinks. We will not let our protest rest till the killers of Pathribal are brought to justice.
Yasin Malik said that JKLF will deliberate upon this issue threadbare and soon issue a Comprehensive Protest program against this Indian oppressive behavior.
Yasin Malik said that after the massacre of Pathribal on 26th march 2000 in which Indian army killed 7 innocents after abducting them from their houses and dubbed then as foreign militants even the prime Indian investigation agency CBI told Supreme Court of India that “our investigations have revealed it was a fake encounter and cold blooded murders”. Yasin said now after 14 years we are being told that army has found no evidence of their involvement in the massacre and that army has closed this case and now Indian defense minister is in no mood to order a reopening of the case. Yasin said that this denial and shielding killers and murderers is not new as Indian army and rulers before this also shielded the killers and criminals involved in Gaw Kadal, Sopore,Handwara, Bijbihara, Kawdara, Tengpora ,Zakura, Bandipora, Poonch, Baderwah massacres and Kunan Poshpora like crimes.
Yasin Malik said that this attitude of Indian rulers and politicians is a clear evidence of the fact that Jammu Kashmir is governed by Indian army, forces and agencies under the garb of fake democracy. That is why these forces kill Kashmiris at will without the fear of any punishment or enquiries.
