The All Parties Hurriyat Conference has said that Indian troops are killing innocent Kashmiri youth in fake encounters in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir to malign the Kashmiris’ ongoing freedom struggle.

The APHC spokesman, in a statement issued in Srinagar, said the troops abduct innocent Kashmiri youth and later extra-judicially kill them in fake encounters.

He said the families of these persons fear that the forces’ have killed their dear ones in so-called encounters and buried them in the unmarked and mass graves discovered across the territory.
