Srinagar: Expressing his surprise and sorrow over the fresh disclosures about the death of a youth who was killed in Mumbai a year ago, chairman Hurriyat Conference?G Syed Ali Geelani demanded immediate arrest of his killers. He said the state government was a mute spectator as whole India was proving a “death trap” for the Kashmiri youth who venture into different Indian cities for earning or education.
According to a statement , he said that at that time we expressed our reservation that Pervaiz Ahmeds death is a murder not an accident but the state administration showed their carelessness and irresponsibility regarding to this murder and in this regard no help was provided to the bereaved family. In a statement issued to press, the pro-freedom leader said that the whole of India is proving to be a city of death for the Kashmiris and Kashmiris are unsafe in every corner of this country.
They are everywhere looked with doubtful eyes and they are abused and insulted there. Geelani sahib said that in the year 2013 many dead bodies of youth were sent to Kashmir who were either studding or doing business there and Pervaiz Ahmed was among those unlucky people who were killed for the crime of being a Kashmiri. He said that still there are dozens of Kashmiries in different jails of India under false and fabricated cases and they dont get justice from the courts also. The Hurriyat chairman strongly criticized the attitude of the state administration and said that the rulers of the state are only concerned to their chairs and till now they have never taken any serious notice of the arrests and deaths of the Kashmiri youth who are residing in India. Though Omer Abdullah many a times assured that now Kashmiris will not be harassed anywhere in India but this announcement was just an announcement as usual and it proved a hoax and the harassment of Kashmiris continued in India. While demanding fair investigation and stern punishment to the culprits into the murder case of Lal Bazar youth Parvaiz Ahmed, Geelani sahib said that this case has become the litmus test for the state administration and let us see what measures they do in this regard.
