ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistan has strongly condemned the extrajudicial killings of three more Kashmir youths in Pulwama area of the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) on Saturday.
In intensified state-sponsored terrorism against Kashmiris, Indian Occupation Forces have martyred six Kashmiris in the past three days.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that it is a matter of grave concern that the draconian military siege, extra-judicial killings, torture in custody, enforced disappearances and incarcerations are continuing unabated in IIOJK.
The statement said that the spate of violence against innocent Kashmiris only betrayed India’s frustration over its failure to suppress the just struggle of the Kashmiris for their legitimate right to self-determination.
It said hat the gross and systematic human rights violations perpetrated by the Indian Occupation Forces in IIOJK warrant investigation by the UN Commission of inquiry as recommended by the OHCHR in its reports of 2018 and 2019.
“We once again call upon the international community to hold India to account for the grave and systematic human rights violations of the Kashmiri people and work for peaceful resolution of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute in accordance with the relevant United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions and wishes of the Kashmiri people,” the statement added.
