Jammu Kashmir National Front has called for urgent release of Kashmiri prisoners. The front has described the IOJK puppet govt. media policy 2020 as an atrocious assault on media in the bleeding vale of Indian held Kashmir valley.
Expressing grave concern over the plight of Kashmiri detainees languishing in different jails in and outside the occupied Kashmir, Jammu and Kashmir National Front has reiterated its demand for the early release of Kashmir in the wake of fast spreading Corona-virus in India.
In a statement issued here on Tuesday a spokesman of the party (JKNF) said that the Kashmiri prisoners detained in highly congested jails in India were at high risk for corona-virus. He said that despite repeated requests for release of political prisoners by the International human rights organizations the Indian government’s deliberate act to keep prolong detention of prisoners was not only immoral and illegal but a serious violation of the basic human rights.
Referring to the continuous detention of the incarcerated party chairman Nayeem Ahmed Khan the JKNF spokesman said the illegally detained Hurriyat leaders and activists have been lodged in far-flung and highly congested prisons in India.
He said that even the family members of the detainees are not in a position to visit them in jails because of the persisting situation. He said that in addition to Hurriyat leaders Indian authorities have detained a large number of Kashmiri youth after 5th August 2019 when Kashmir’s autonomy was withdrawn by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The youth arrested on trumped up charges, he said, have been booked in jails in central Indian states where their families cannot reach easily. The policy of booking youth in far-flung prisons he said was a deliberate attempt to penalize the youth.
