SRINAGAR: Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) Chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik has condemned the arrest of party senior activist Mushtaq Ahmad of Koreg, Ganderbal, terming it as police “high handedness”.
“Mushtaq Ahmad was called by police to police station and detained there for unknown reasons,” Malik in a statement said, his arrest as ‘worst human rights violation’.
Condemning the ‘onslaught’ against students across Kashmir, Malik said “Police attacked students at Handwara and injured many of them. This is clear violation of all ethics and worst state terrorism.”
Meanwhile, a condolence meeting was held at Chanapora to mark the anniversary of advocate Peerzada Iftikhar Ahmad who was slain in 1994. A JKLF delegation led by vice- chairman advocate Bashir Ahmad Butt visited Chanapora and paid glowing tributes to advocate Iftikhar Ahmad. “He was a gallant militant and a true Muslim who showed no signs of fatigue during struggle and laid his life in the way of Allah,” the speakers on the occasion said.
