AJK Calls Upon World To Act Over Crimes Against Humanity In Occupied Kashmir

Azad Jammu and Kashmir President Sardar Masood Khan Wednesday warned that world war-II like catastrophe could happen if the international community continues to overlook India's crimes against humanity
He made these remarks while addressing a gathering of councilors, Kashmiri-Pakistani community leaders, businessmen, lawyers, judges and journalists at City Council Hall in British Waltham Stow town, says an official message released by the AJK Presidential Secretariat to media here.
The president said that in the last century, many European governments were appeasing a fascist government that resulted in the World War and the Holocaust. And now the world was busy in appeasing India, a perpetrator of unspeakable crimes against humanity in Kashmir, he lamented.
The president hit out at the international community's lack of interest to address gross human rights' violations by Indian occupation forces in Kashmir. "The indifference of the international community to these grave human rights atrocities by India raises doubts in the minds of Kashmiris.
" "The silence of the world over the situation in Indian Occupied Kashmir is a crime itself," Khan said and added that the international community should hold its leaders directly responsible and accountable for what they say and what they do in regard to their global responsibilities.
Referring to the recent statement of Indian Prime Minister who threatened to wipe Pakistan out by the use of the mother of nuclear bombs, President said it was the most irresponsible statement that had come from the leader of a country that claims to be the biggest democracy in the world.
He condemned the threatening statement of Indian Prime Minister Modi and called upon the United Nations Security Council to take serious cognizance of such statements.
The President also urged the international community, the United Nations, and global human rights organizations to take notice of the grave human rights violations in Indian Occupied Kashmir.
He also urged young Kashmiris to develop and hone their skills to put across their point of view effectively and convincingly.
