India using IHK for military experiments: IPT

Srinagar, June 30: International Peoples Tribunal (IPT), Jammu and Kashmir, has termed occupied Kashmir, as a laboratory of Indian military’s violent experiments.

Convener of IPT, Angana Chatterji, while addressing media persons, said that Kashmir was a laboratory of violent experiments conducted by Indian military and armed forces had got increasingly powerful in the territory.

She said that the occupation authorities, in collaboration with Hindu nationalists, were promoting militarised Hindu nationalism and vowed to externalise the recent spate of innocent killings in the occupied territory.

The IPT demanded of the international community to be accountable towards the gruesome situation in the Valley.

Speaking on the occasion, founder of Jammu and Kashmir Coalition of Civil Society (JKCCS), Parvez Imroz said the occupation authorities had no feeling of accountability. “The massive repression is highly condemnable,” he added.

Urging the international community to intervene, Imroz said that the US, European Union and other nations should help resolve the Kashmir dispute, as its amicable settlement was imperative for peace and stability of the region.

The Tribunal also condemned the presence of armed forces in educational institutions, hospitals, shopping centres, cafeterias, playgrounds and markets.
