JKLF Monday strongly condemned police “oppression” at Hyderpora yesterday against a peaceful program of Tehreek I Hurriyat, calling it “yet another glaring example of state sponsored terrorism”.
“This shows that the so-called rulers lack courage to fight resistance camp politically,” JKLF spokesperson said in a statement. “Blanket ban on resistance camp’s political programs is condemnable.”
While condemning the teargas shelling, cane charge and other police “oppression” against Tehreek I Hurriyat program, the spokesperson said that the way in which peaceful political activists, elders, youth and children were beaten and “tortured ruthlessly” has exposed the “hypocritical face of so called rulers who claim to be democratic but are actually stooges hell bent upon desecrating all democratic means and norms”.
He said that present regime in J&K has beaten all records of “oppression” and from the first day in office, “this regime has forcefully stopped resistance camp from reaching out to the people or holding peaceful political programs”.
He said that during last many months, JKLF Chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik many times tried to hold peaceful programs but as soon as he along with others stepped out to do so, police and forces by force stopped him from doing that.
“Same is being done with every resistance party and leader as there has been a total ban imposed on peaceful political activities,” the spokesperson said.
He said that on one side India and its “stooges” in Jammu Kashmir practice this kind of “undemocratic politics” and on the other hand, tall claims of being biggest democracy are been made day in and day out which speaks volumes about the “hypocritical politics of Indian leaders”.
Meanwhile, JKLF paid “rich tributes to innocent martyr” of 2010 Shaheed Umer Qayoom of Soura Srinagar.
“This innocent teenager was brutally killed by police in custody and till date no one has been penalized or booked for his murder,” the spokesperson said. “JKLF prays for the heavenly abode of this innocent martyr.”
