World should redouble efforts to resolve Kashmir dispute: JKMM

In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the  Jammu and Kashmir Mass Movement  while urging the international community to increase its efforts for settlement of the Kashmir dispute as per UN Security Council resolutions has warned that the unresolved dispute poses a great threat to the global peace.

The JKMM Vice Chairman Abdul Majeed Mir in a statement issued in Islamabad  said the United Nations and the world powers have either forgotten the Kashmir dispute or they are deliberately ignoring it even though it is one of the oldest unresolved disputes on the agenda of the United Nations because of India’s traditional bigotry.

He said the Kashmir dispute still poses a great threat to the world peace as more than one hundred thousand Kashmiris have fallen victim to India’s ruthless and brutal policy, which is in vogue since 1989.

Abdul Majeed  maintained that India has enforced black laws like the Armed Forces Special Powers Act and TADA in occupied Jammu and Kashmir to massacre unarmed Kashmiris. He pointed out that thousands of Kashmiri youth have been picked up by Indian forces after being labelled as militants on mere suspicion. “The youth are subjected to the worst forms of torture in the investigation centers where many are martyred and are declared as militants and buried in anonymous graves,” he added.

The Vice Chairman  said that the unmarked graves of Kashmiri youth, martyred in custody, were spread in remote areas of the territory while families were waiting for their return. He said that India has failed to suppress the Kashmiris’ freedom sentiment despite using all tactics of brutalities. He said that the people of Pakistan stand by their  Kashmiri brethren and continue to support their struggle for freedom diplomatically, politically and morally.
