Observer Report Islamabad
The special envoy of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation on Jammu and Kashmir Yousef Aldo-beay Sunday said OIC would continue to support Kashmiris’ right to self-determination.
He was speaking during a meeting here with the representatives of All Parties Hurriyat Conference in Pakistan.
The Kashmir issue was similar to the Palestine issue as the human rights of the people of Kashmir and Palestine were being violated and they were facing the threat of demographic changes.
The special envoy reaffirmed OIC’s support to the just struggle of the Kashmiri people. He expressed complete solidarity with the valiant Kashmiri peo-ple.
He said OIC had longstanding support for the right of self-determination of the people of Jammu and Kashmir in accordance with UN Security Council resolutions.
This was the second visit of the special envoy to Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
Yousef Aldobeay said his first visit to Azad Kash-mir last year was beneficial as during it he had the opportunity to meet the Kashmiri leadership.
Ghulam Muhammad Safi, Faiz Nakshbandi, Sheikh Abdul Mateen and Altaf Wani were part of the APHC delegation which met the OIC special envoy.
The APHC delegation thanked the special envoy for the OIC’s steadfast support to the people of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The delegation apprised him of the grave human rights and humanitarian situation in the IIOJK.
They stressed that following its illegal actions of 5 August 2019, India was now taking steps to disenfranchise the Kashmiri people and to turn the IIOJK into a Hindu dominated territory.
