ISLAMABAD: Chairperson Peace and Culture Organization Mushaal Hussein Mullick lashed out at the supremacist Indian government for turning the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) into a world largest open prison and a slaughter house to terrorize and force Kashmiri people so as they could shun the freedom struggle; however she added that such brutal tactics did not work for the last over 70 years.
This was stated by Mushaal, the jailed Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik’s wife, in a video message on India’s 75th Independence Day, which Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control and around the world marked as Black Day to draw attention to Indian state terrorism and war crimes.
She said that India and Pakistan are celebrating their 75th Independence Day but Kashmiri nation has been deprived of their fundamental rights to live with peace and harmony as citizens of Independent country due to India’s forceful and illegitimate occupation of the valley. Mushaal said that the people of the scenic valley had been battling for their independence for the last over seven decades during which over 100,000 innocent Kashmiris were martyred.
The head of the Hurriyat said that although the world community and human rights organisations kept silent, the fascist Indian forces had unleashed a wave of brutality and perpetrated war crimes in the IIOJK. According to Mushaal, the courageous Kashmiri people will continue to fight for their right to self-determination until they are free of the chains of Indian oppression. According to Mushaal, Indian forces are killing defenceless and innocent Kashmiris in war crimes and acts of genocide.
She went on to say that her husband Yasin was a face of peaceful resistance movement but he has been languishing in Tehar death cell for his sole crime to raise voice for the Kashmiris just and birth right of right to self-determination. The chairperson stated that practically, she was living a life like a half widow and their ten year daughter was a half orphan for past eight and half years, as they did not see him.
She pleaded with the UN, its five permanent missions, its embassies around the world, and all people to “understand the sorrow of a mother and daughter.” Mushaal urged the world’s nations, UN agencies, and human rights groups to apply pressure on the fascist Indian government to resolve the Kashmir conflict in accordance with the UN’s formula and the desires of the valley’s residents.
