ISLAMABAD
\nMushaal Hussein Mullick, wife of jailed Kashmiri Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik, on Tuesday strongly condemned the filing of a fresh charge sheet against her husband in a 36-year-old case, describing it as the \u201cworst example of political vengeance.\u201d
\nIn a statement, she alleged that the case is based on the names of deceased persons and accused India of attempting to convert Yasin Malik\u2019s life imprisonment into a death sentence, calling it a grave violation of human rights and an attempt to suppress the Kashmiri people\u2019s right to self-determination.
\nMS Mullick said the filing of a new charge sheet in a decades-old case exposed the political misuse of the judicial process. She asserted that prosecuting a case in the names of deceased individuals raised serious questions about the credibility and fairness of India\u2019s judicial system.
\nShe maintained that efforts to seek the death penalty for Yasin Malik despite his existing life sentence, amounted to a serious violation of internationally recognised human rights and reflected political retaliation rather than the pursuit of justice.
\nShe added that the voice of the Kashmiri people could not be crushed through force, intimidation or coercive measures. She further stated that the spirit of freedom among Kashmiris could not be extinguished through fear or violence and urged the international community to take immediate notice of India\u2019s \u201cjudicial drama.\u201d
\nCalling on the United Nations and international human rights organisations to fulfil their responsibilities, Mushaal warned that remaining silent in the face of alleged injustice would amount to tacit approval of oppression. She concluded that the cases against Yasin Malik were not a reflection of justice but of political revenge, reaffirming that the struggle for the rights and aspirations of the Kashmiri people would continue. \u2014 DNA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
