ISLAMABAD: Jammu and Kashmir People’s Freedom League (JKPFL) Chairman Muhammad Faroo
q Rehmani has strongly denounced the Indian government for its judicial murder policy under a Kashmiri youth, Muzaffar Ahmed Rather of Kulgam was awarded death sentence by a West Bengal court, disregarding all legal and judicial norms and procedures.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Rehmani in a statement issued in Srinagar said that Muzaffar Rather was not handed over a charge-sheet and had no defence lawyer to plead his case. He said Indian rulers had nefarious designs to hang Kashmiri youth one after another in order to crush the ongoing Kashmir freedom movement. He appealed to impartial jurists, defence counsels, human
rights organisations and the United Nations to invoke relevant clauses of international humanitarian laws to prevent India from sending Kashmiris to the gallows.
The JKPFL chairman said that the Modi regime was hell-bent on executing Kashmiris by hook or by crook. He added that there wer
e many innocent Kashmiris languishing in various Indian prisons for the last 20 years for their uncommitted crimes. He added that Indian policy was
to keep them imprisoned till their death.

q Rehmani said that the latest Bengali court judgment against a Kashmiri had sent shock waves across Kashmir. Rehmani further said that Kashmiris living in other parts of the world were equally concerned and the Indian court judgment had intrinsic nastiness to destabilise the region.
The JKPFL chairman termed the claim of In
dian Republic Day celebrations in occupied Kashmir as fantastic and ridiculous as ever and said that 26th January was a black day and the Kashmiri people had neither accepted the Indian Constitution, nor they would ever recognise it. He added, “The Jammu and Kashmir People’s Democratic Party-Bharatiya Janata Party (PDP-BJP) regime has no locus standi before the people of Kashmir. Kashmiris will continue to fight for freedom and the right to self-determination according to the UN charter and its Security Council resolutions on referendum,” he added.
