In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, justice continues to elude the family of a 12th class student, Tufail Mattoo, for the last thirteen years.

Tufail Mattoo was martyred on this day in 2010 after being hit by a teargas shell fired from very close range by Indian police near Ghani Memorial Stadium in Srinagar when he was returning home from tuition. His killing had triggered massive anti-India demonstrations in the territory and over 125 peaceful protesters were martyred by Indian troops, paramilitary and police personnel in just a few months in 2010. Tufail Mattoo’s name is a synonym to the bloody summer of 2010 in IIOJK.

Despite the passage of more than a decade, the family of the martyred student continues to await justice and his killers are still roaming scot-free while bloodbath is going on unabated in the occupied territory.—KMS
