The President of People’s Democratic Party, Mehbooba Mufti, has expressed concern over the killing of three civilians in Poonch district of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir at the hands of Indian soldiers.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Mehbooba Mufti talking to the media men in Srinagar said after the death of five Indian soldiers in an attack in Poonch district, the Indian troops are committing the worst kind of state terrorism in the territory.
Referring to media reports, she said that the soldiers detained 15 people during a search operation in a village of Poonch, out of which three were brutally tortured and martyred, while the remaining 12 people were seriously injured at the time, who are in hospitals. Mehbooba said such heartbreaking videos have come out in which Indian soldiers can be seen throwing young people down and putting chilies on their wounds.
Referring to the deteriorating situation in the occupied territory, she said Jammu and Kashmir has been turned into an open prison, thousands of people, including imams of mosques, lawyers and journalists have been put in jails and employees are being fired from their jobs.—KMS
