SIRINAGAR: In occupied Kashmir, Hurriyet leaders and organizations including Mirwaiz Umar Farooq have condemned the killing of a minor girl, Kaneeza, and three other Kashmiri youth in firing by Indian troops in Kupwara, on Tuesday.
The Chairman of Hurriyet forum, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq termed the killings and severe injuries to a minor boy Faisal as yet another worst example of state terrorism committed by Indian forces on the people of Kashmir, said a press release issued on Thursday.
The Mirwaiz said the killing of the minor girl indicates how Indian forces enjoy the impunity to kill Kashmiris under the garb of military operations. He said showering bullets on unarmed innocent minors and atrocities on civilian population are totally against the internationally accepted laws and established norms.
He urged the international human rights bodies and influential nations around the globe to take serious notice of the atrocities being committed on the people of Kashmir and play their roles to bring an end to the bloodshed.
