“Our young sons are being killed with impunity but no one among International community seems to bother.”

Srinagar: The incarcerated chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) on Tuesday paid tributes to civilians who were killed during the clashes near an encounter site in Chadoora area of Central Kashmir’s Budgam district.
JKLF chairman in a statement issued to KNS said, “Our young sons are being killed with impunity but no one among International community seems to bother.”
While condemning the attack on civilians, JKLF chairman said, “Callousness of police was evident at Jahangeer Chowk where police even did not spare the dead body of slain youth and used their brute force against his mourning relatives.”

While praying for the speedy recovery of dozens injured today, JKLF chairman expressed solidarity with the bereaved families.

Malik while condemning the nocturnal raid on JKLF leader Muhammad Yasin Butt’s residence and ‘harassing’ his family said, “Police last late night raided the residence of JKLF zonal senior vice president Muhammad Yasin Butt’s residence. Yasin Butt was not at his home but police barged into his house, searched entire house and harassed his wife and 10 year old son.”
