The JKLF leaders also condemned the continued incarceration of chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik and said JKLF chairman is being arrested and incarcerated every now and then which has resulted in deteriorating his heath considerably which is highly worrying.
The JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik remains in police custody from 19 November.
A JKLF spokesperson quoted Malik as saying, brutal assassination of political leaders and activists like Mir Hafiz-u-Allah and unrelenting spree of Killings of young Kashmiris across the valley amounts to annihilation of an entire generation. Wilful Indian killing machine has gone out of control in Kashmir but no one in the international community seems to bother or take a serious note of it.
The brutal assassination of resistance leader Mir Hafizullah has created a big void in the ranks of resistance camp and we all are in a state of mourning on his untimely departure.
Terming the recent shifting of Kashmiri inmates as most autocratic and atrocious act, JKLF chairman said that terrorizing, tormenting and torturing inmates and their families is illegal, obnoxious and and most reprehensible act.
