Bilal Kakpori was Made Target of Prolonged Detentions, Torture: Speakers say in MDM Conference
Muslim Deeni Mahaz (MDM) Friday
organised a conference in memory of late Bilal Kakpori. Bilal died a few
days ago after he was released from detention from Pulwama Police
station.
The conference titled “Services of Bilal
to Resistance and Our Responsibilities” was held in home town of Bilal
at Kakpora Pulwama.
Members of different religious and
political parties besides a large number of people participated in the
programme, a MDM statement said this evening.
Highlighting the services of Bilal, the
statement quoting speakers said, “he always remained steadfast against
the occupational forces. Therefore, he was made a target of prolonged
detentions and torture. The sustained torture has affected his speech to
a great extent. But this didn’t stop him from being a forceful advocate
of the Kashmir resistance movement and because of his pious character
he was a silent missionary for the resistance movement. He always proved
to be brave and steadfast in face of the tests he was put to by the
occupational regime and forces.”
Speakers emphasised, “we should carry forward the mission of the martyrs.”
The programme was telephonically
addressed by Hurriyat patriarch Syed Ali Geelani and representatives
from Muslim League, Democratic freedom party, Freedom league,
Tehreek-e-Hurriyat, Kashmir Freedom Front attended the function.
The programme was presided over by MDM general secretary Muhammad Maqbool Bhat, the statement added.
