Srinagar: Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK)’s All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) on Sunday expressed concern over the plight of illegally detained Hurriyat leaders and activists languishing in notorious jails in India and the territory. According to a report by Kashmir Media Service (KMS), APHC spokesman in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the congestion and non-availability of basic amenities as per jail manual, had made the detainees’ lives vulnerable to multiple diseases. Denouncing the unabated arrest spree launched by Indian forces in the nook and corner of the occupied territory, he said that more than six and a half thousand leaders and activists belonging to the Kashmir resistance movement had been put behind the bars on baseless charges and fabricated grounds. Terming the arbitrary arrests as the worst example of political vendetta, the spokesman said that such repressive policies were aimed at changing the freedom narrative of Kashmir which had remained a distant dream of Indian fascist regime since its illegal occupation of the territory.
