In Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K), the Democratic Political Movement (DPM) has said that India is killing and torturing innocent youth in the territory and is using all brutal tactics to suppress the Kashmir liberation movement.

In a statement issued in Srinagar, the DPM Chairman, Khawaja Firdous said that the Indian Army is arresting innocent youth during so-called search operations on daily basis.

He said India could not suppress the Kashmiris’ ongoing liberation movement.

He said that illegally detained Hurriyat leaders and activists including Muhammad Yasin Malik, Shabbir Ahmad Shah, Aasiya Andrabi, Naheeda Nasreen and Fehmida Sufi, had been suffering from various diseases in jails but they were not being provided medical facilities.

He called upon the world community and international human rights organizations to put pressure on India to stop Human rights violations and release the Kashmiri detainees.
