Condition of Kashmiri inmates in outside Jails horrible: Yasin Malik

Srinagar

JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik on Wednesday said that condition of Kashmiri inmates languishing in jails is alarming and authorities are hell bent upon making their lives more miserable. People of Kashmir are seriously concerned about the health condition of senior Resistance leader Shabir Ahmad Dar, JKLF organizer Siraj-ud-Din Mir who are both seriously ill and have now been shifted to hospital by Kot-balwal Jail authorities and senior resistance leaders Syeda Asiya Andrabi and Syed Shabir Ahmad Shah who are languishing in Tihar Jail.

Terming the condition of inmates languishing in various jails of Jammu Kashmir and India as miserable, Malik in a statement has said that rulers and their authorities have actually declared a war against People of Kashmir. He said that in all aspect of life, Kashmiris are facing indiscrimination and apathy.

Malik said that being a signatory to the Geneva Convention on prisoner rights, it was obligatory on India to recognize rights of Kashmiri prisoners but contrary to this, the state is suppressing Kashmiri inmates and subjecting them to worst torture, cruelty, and apathy and putting the lives of these inmates in jeopardy. Terming the health condition of senior resistance leaders Shabir Ahmad Dar (chairman Muslim Conference-S) and Siraj Ud din (deputy chief organizer JKLF) as worrying, JKLF chairman said that two years back Shabir Ahmad Dar suffered a severe heart attack in police custody and has to live on life-saving medicines. Recently Shabir Ahmad Dar fainted at Kot-balwal jail and has now been hospitalized in Jammu by Jail authorities.

Likewise, JKLF leader Siraj-ud-din Mir who is elderly and suffering from different ailments and recently lost consciousness and fell down at the above-said jail and even got injuries on his face and forehead. He too has been shifted to some hospital in Jammu for treatment. In the same manner incarcerated Syeda Asiya Andrabi and senior resistance leader Syed Shabir Ahmad Shah, languishing in Tihar Jail Delhi, along with many other Kashmiris are also suffering from the cruel colonial approach of the state.
