Malik condemns India's oppressive measures in IOK

ISLAMABAD: Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front Chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik has strongly condemned arrests, nocturnal raids and other oppressive measures unleashed by Indian police against youth in the occupied territory.

Condemning the reign of terror unleashed especially in Kulgam, Islamabad, Srinagar and other parts of Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK), arrest of innocent youth and night-time raids, Malik said that such acts of oppression had proved that present regime was an anti-Kashmiris regime, KMS reported.

Terming the arrests an act of sheer frustration, he said that the youth were not released even on the auspicious occasion of Eidul Fitr. Rulers, he said, would yield nothing but shame by pushing Kashmiris to the wall through such repressive measures.

Meanwhile, a JKLF spokesman said that Malik was placed under house arrest on last Friday of Ramadan and denied a chance to address a public meeting at Chrar-e-Sharief. He was again put under house arrest on Eid day and not allowed to offer Eid prayers. – APP
