Hurriyat patriarch Syed Ali Geelani
Criticizing and condemning the “unethical and undemocratic” actions, especially cordoning off the office-cum-residence of Hurriyat Conference chairperson Syed Ali Geelani, ransacking and destroying fruits in orchards, burning of heaps of paddy and widespread arrests, All Parties Hurriyat Conference on Friday said that the balloon of ‘battle of Ideas’ by “puppet government” has been punctured since long.
“Escalating to the higher podium of power on the eyewash of stooges like ‘healing touch’, present government has stooped down further in besieging the people especially leaders, molesting their own rhetoric of so-called democracy,” APHC said in a statement issued this afternoon.
The Hurriyat Conference said, “Geelani sahab has been confined in the four walls of his house since 2010 and all his social and political activities have been curbed and he has not been allowed to participate in the functions of any of his family members especially marriage ceremony of his four grandchildren recently and even on Fridays and Eid occasion he is not allowed to offer prayers.”
“Hyderpora residence (of Syed Ali Geelani) has already been converted into a sub-jail, but since 21 September 2016, the cordon and restrictions have been reinforced by deploying a contingent of CRPF in a mobile bunker fitted with an automatic snipers and cameras, which keeps the record of everybody coming and visiting him,” the APHC said.
“By snapping the communication, not permitting any visitors, even the family members and their kids have to ask higher authorities to go inside their own house, round the clock vigil by armed police and CRPF has created a fearful and terrifying environment,” the Hurriyat Conference said.
It further said, “whole nation is on protest for the last 3 months, with 8500 people already arrested and 500 slapped with PSA and shifted outside (Kashmir). Killings and oppression is seen everywhere and any sign of amelioration are far from the sight. In this grim and gloomy situation, isolating Geelani Sahab from its people is a well-thought design by the imperialistic, cunning and dodgy mind set.”
The Hurriyat Conference said, “these cowardice actions have not yielded anything in the past and will not do any better today as well, and they can never be able to suppress the zeal and fervour of freedom from masses.”

Geelani led Hurriyat Conference appealed to people that in view of the gag on the communication and sealing of the office/residence, “it is very hard for us to get to anybody”.
“Therefore people should continue the struggle with courage, steadfastness, unity and sincerity. The oppressor has left us with no choice but to fight for our basic rights that too by harming only ourselves, as its military might, aggression and arrogance with the shameless, wicked and disgusting shield by the local perpetrators and culprits have camouflaged themselves as the statues with no emotions left in them,” the Hurriyat Conference maintained.
“Geelani sahab is aware of the hardships people are facing as we have everything at stake, especially future of our next generation and we need to stay united and by commitment and determination we have to safeguard our sacrifices and those defying and weakening our resolve are willing or unwillingly helping our killers. Armed occupying forces are gate crashing the residences, destroying everything coming their way, burning the paddy fields and snatching away the fruit from growers. These are yet another ‘blessings’ from disciplined army of a country where we are ‘secure and protected’ than any other place,” it said.
“This reminds of a historical act of revenge from the Italian army when they razed to ground the stores of food grains of Libyan people in their freedom struggle in 1916, as the oppressors share same similarities as their operative mechanics by depriving the people of their food, as they want to starve those to death who escaped their bullets and pallets,” the APHC said. “Puppet CM is all set to glorify her ‘security forces’ for such brave acts, as all the bond-aged and occupied brains think likewise.”
