Farooq Rehmani in a statement condemned in strong words killing of youth in the northern area of Kashmir, crack down on peaceful political demonstrators, undeclared curfew in parts of the territory and large scale arrests of Hurriyat leaders and workers in Srinagar.
He deplored that the United Nations and its Council for Human Rights were indifferent to the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, where people were being treated like sheep and goats. He said that the threat to life of people was increasing day by day, so it was the duty of the world body to call an emergency session of the General Assembly, make India answerable before it and force her to abolish inhuman laws in the region and follow the International Human Rights Laws in Kashmir.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani warned that if the UN did not come forward to rescue the Kashmiris, India would get emboldened and no bilateral talks or the so called peace diplomacy would save the region from disaster. »
