ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 18th Jan, 2019 ) :In Indian occupied Kashmir the Chairman of All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC), Syed Ali Gilani has expressed serious concern over the prolonged illegal detention and ill-treatment meted out to Hurriyat leaders in jails in and outside the territory especially at Tihar Jail in New Delhi.
According to Kashmir Media Service,Syed Ali Gilani said, "The health of Peer Saifullah, presently lodged at Tihar jail in India has deteriorated to the extent that he felt unconscious in a bathroom. Despite his grave health condition, he was not shifted to any hospital but taken to a nearby dispensary," he deplored.
He said this inhuman and biased treatment to prisoners is the gross violations of not only human rights but also disobedience of the norms of jail manual. Peer Saifullah is already a patient of brain tumor and has been operated upon two years back but the authorities are not even sparing a cancer patient.
Rulers have lodged him in a far-flung jail with no legal proceedings, he added.
Syed Ali Gilani said that fictitious and false cases were framed against Hurriyat leaders. He said the illegally detained Hurriyat leaders included Shabbir Ahmad Shah, Altaf Ahmad Shah, Ayaz Akbar, Peer Saifullah, Raja Meraj-ud-din Kalwal, Dr Ghulam Muhammad Butt, Shahid-ul-Islam, Nayeem Ahmad Khan, Farooq Ahmad Dar, Syed Shahid Yousuf, Syed Shakeel Ahmad, Zahoor Ahmad Watali, Aasiya Andrabi, Nahida Nasreen and Fehmeeda Sofi. He said the oppressive and coercive measures will never deter the Kashmiris from pursuing their struggle for justice and basic rights.
He appealed to global human rights organizations to at least show their concern for these inhuman actions by India to safeguard the life of thousands of Kashmiri prisoners who are forced to live under constant mental, physical and psychological stress thousands miles away from their houses.
