AJK President Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry Saturday urged that the United Nations (UN) should take immediate practical steps to stop human right violation in IIOJK region and expressed his serious concern over dozens of youth were being arrested in fake charges.
Talking to a private news channel on the occasion of Youm-e-Istehsal, he said Hindustan was blatantly violating the principles and rules of the United Nations besides being a usurper of the basic human rights of the Kashmiri people. He asked the world community to compel and counsel India to halt its human rights abuses against the people of IIOJK, adding, the detained Hurriyet leaders and youth were innocent and the police’s claim was nothing but a hoax.
He said the world is well aware of the atrocities committed by the forces in Kashmir, but unfortunately, the international community has adopted double standards on these issues. Replying to a question, he said the world is acknowledging the stance of Pakistan on the Kashmir issue as Islamabad is effectively highlighting the Kashmir dispute on all international forums.
“The time is not far when the Kashmiris will get their right to self-determination”, he added. It was worth mentioned here that an analytical report released by Kashmir Media Service, systematic human rights violations are being continuously committed with impunity by Indian troops in occupied territory. The report said several global rights groups have repeatedly raised alarm about worsening human rights situation in IIOJK as human rights violations have shown a massive increase in occupied territory since 5 August 2019.
The report said Modi regime’s 5 August 2019 actions are gross violations of the United Nations Security Council resolutions and Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that affirms the right to life.
