State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) has taken suo moto cognizance of killing of teenager Gowhar Nazir Dar who was killed by paramilitary forces in Zainakote on November 07, 2016.
In case of Gowhar Nazir, there are reports that despite the report submitted by ADC Srinagar, no action has been initiated against the accused CRPF personnel.
The family of Gowhar Nazir Dar of Zainakote locality, who died after a teargas shell fired allegedly by CRPF hit his head in November last year, had demanded that the probe report of the killing should be made public.
“Authorities had ordered a magisterial probe into the killing of my son who died in CRPF action last year. Additional Deputy Commissioner Nazir Ahmed Baba was appointed inquiry officer. We produced 18 witnesses before the inquiry committee who all held CRPF guilty of killing my son. Even after the expiry of a year, government is mute over the outcome of the probe report,” Nazir Ahmed Dar father of Gowhar Nazir told CNS.
“Neither the government wants to inform us nor is it ready to make the findings public. This is sheer injustice with us,” he said. Additional Deputy Commissioner Nazir Ahmed Baba said
“I completed my job and submitted the probe report to the government. The report is with the Home Department and it has to take a call on it,” Baba said.
