In occupied Kashmir, Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference organised a prayer meeting in Sopore in memory of a 14-year old innocent martyr, Khalid Sharif Mir, on his martyrdom anniversary, today.
Khalid Mir was martyred by Indian troops in a brazen act of terrorism on June 30, 2009. The meeting was attended by several Hurriyat activists including the father of the martyr, Sharifud Din Mir.
Speakers on the occasion said that innocent Khalid was killed only because he was a Kashmiri Muslim and a freedom lover. On that fateful day, Khalid was part of a peaceful demonstration organised by students.—KMS
