ISLAMABAD, (MANEND NEWS): Pakistan has reaffirmed support to the
Kashmiri brethren in their just struggle against Indian oppression till
the realization of their inalienable right to self-determination as
enshrined in the relevant United Nations Security Council Resolutions.
In a statement on the occasion of Yaum-e-shuhada-e-Kashmir
observed on Tuesday, Foreign Office Spokesperson Zahid Hafeez
Chaudhri said the government and people of Pakistan pay homage to
the 22 sons of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, who laid
down their lives fighting the brutal Dogra forces in Srinagar in 1931.
The courage of these martyrs galvanized an unparalleled struggle for
self-determination in 1931 that continues till date.
He said over 390 Kashmiris have been martyred by the Indian
Occupation Forces in IIOJK since August 5th, 2019.
During this year alone, the Indian Occupation Forces have extra-
judicially killed 85 innocent Kashmiris including young boys and
women; arbitrarily arrested and detained 537 Kashmiris; and
destroyed 31 houses of Kashmiri people.
He said that the unabated Indian repression over the past seven
decades, has failed to break the will of the Kashmiri people.
Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said we once again call upon the international
community, particularly the United Nations and human rights
organizations, to investigate the persistent extra-judicial killings of
Kashmiris by Indian Occupation Forces and bring the perpetrators of
these heinous crimes to justice.
Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said that Pakistan will continue to support its
Kashmiri brethren in their just struggle against Indian oppression till
the realization of their inalienable right to self-determination as
enshrined in the relevant United Nations Security Council Resolutions.
