In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the All Parties Hurriyat Conference has urged the international community to take cognizance of the grim situation in the territory where people are constantly living a hellish life under the shadow of Indian guns.

The APHC spokesman in a statement deplored that India by deploying over one million troops in IIOJK has turned it into an open air prison and usurped all basic rights and freedoms of the Kashmiri people. 

He maintained that the worst Indian state terrorism for the past over seven decades has failed to suppress the Kashmiris’ resolve for freedom.

He called upon the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres to take steps for resolving the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people to save them from the Indian atrocities.

Meanwhile, APHC-AJK chapter leaders, Qazi Imran and Khalid Shabbir, in a joint statement issued in Islamabad paid glowing tributes to mujahid commander, Mohammad Iqbal alias Abdullah on his 19th martyrdom anniversary.

They said, the entire family of the martyr has been playing an active part in the ongoing Kashmir freedom movement.

In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Indian troops in their fresh act of state terrorism shot at and injured a Kashmiri youth in Kupwara district, today.

On the other hand the youth was injured after the troops fired at him during a cordon and search operation in Langate area of the district.

The injured youth was also arrested and was admitted in a hospital where his condition is stated to be stable.
