SRINAGAR, Jun 25 (DNA): The All Parties Hurriyat Conference has said
that Indian troops are deliberately targeting the youth in Indian
illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir under a well-thought-out plan to
force the Kashmiris into submission.

The APHC in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the troops enjoying
unbridled powers under draconian laws were killing and arresting the
Kashmiri youth at will without any fear of punishment. It said during
the last two weeks, the troops have martyred over a dozen youth in fake
encounters and arrested many others during house raids and so-called
search operations.

The APHC urged the international community to hold India accountable for
the war crimes and crimes against humanity being perpetrated by its
troops in IIOJK and play a role in resolving the Kashmir dispute in
accordance with the Kashmiris’ aspirations.

Meanwhile, APHC leader, Khawaja Firdous, in a statement in Srinagar said
durable peace cannot be established in South Asia without resolving the
Kashmir dispute in line with the will of Kashmiri people and relevant UN
resolutions.

He said that the fascist Indian government led by Narendra Modi violated
international law by repealing the special status of IIOJK on August 5,
2019. He added that in order to change the demographic composition of
the occupied territory, Modi regime has granted citizenship of Jammu and
Kashmir to tens of thousands of Indian citizens in gross violation of
the UN resolutions and the international law.
