The Azad Jammu and Kashmir Prime Minister, Sardar Tanveer Ilyas, has said that India has turned occupied Kashmir into a prison. Sardar Tanveer Ilyas in a video message said that Kashmir was not a territorial dispute but a humanitarian issue and millions of Kashmiri are living in India’s forced captivity.
He further said Indian atrocities are continuously increasing in occupied Kashmir. He said he saluted the Kashmiri mothers, who gave birth to sons like Syed Ali Gilani, Yasin Malik and others. The AJK Prime Minister said Yasin Malik, who has been give life imprisonment by an Indian court in a false and fabricated case and has been languishing in New Delhi’s Tihar jail, is a freedom fighter and allegations of terrorism against him are nothing but frustration of India. He said the role of the Pakistan Army as a peacekeeping force in the United States is exemplary.
