Srinagar: Hurriyat Conference (G) chairperson, Syed Ali Geelani Saturday expressed grave concern about the reported worsening health conditions of Tehreek-e-Huriyat activist Ab Rehman Tantrey and said that if anything untoward happens to the ailing activist, the administration will be held responsible.
Geelani while referring to continuous detention of pro- freedom leaders including Mir Hafeez Ullah, Mohamad Yusuf Falahi, Mohammad Shaban Dar, Raies Ahmad Mir, Master Ali Mohammad, Ab Ahad Para, Mohammad Amin Ganai, Mushtaq Ahmad Hura, Mohamad Amin Raina, Bashir Ahmad Sofi, Bashir Ahmad Kashmiri, Bashir Ahmad Boya, Gh Mohammad lone, Shakeel Ahmad Yatoo, Shakir Ahmad Mir, Showkat Ahmad Dar, Ab Khaliq Regu and several others, said that detainees in Jammu jails are subjected to vengeance.
They are being provided with sub- standard food and medical needs of these detainees within the prison system have been neglected. Both political and criminal are treated with same yard-stick and no system of segregation exists, said Geelani in a statement to KNS.
Geelani expressed dismay over snails pace process in judiciary and said state administration is subjecting them to political reprisal and on the pretext of preventive detention prisoners are detained in jails.
Blaming judiciary for its partiality, Geelani said they are helping as a tool for state administration and are following and favouring directives from state machinery.
He expressed his concern and anguish over the silence maintained by international organisations and said they are not taking any serious note of this lawlessness.
Meanwhile, Syed Ali Geelani expressed his deep grief over the demise of Mohammad Yusuf Shah (Chogal Handwara) & Ab Kabir Dar (Spore) and said both had very close relations with him.
