JRL demands high level probe into plight of Kashmiri prisoners

In occupied Kashmir, the Joint Resistance Leadership has demanded high-level probe into the plight of Kashmiri prisoners languishing in various jails in and outside the territory. 

The leadership comprising Syed Ali Gilani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik, in a joint statement issued in Srinagar, condemned the inhuman treatment meted out to pro-freedom leaders and activists at the hands of Indian jail authorities.

They said jails have been turned into hell-like interrogation centres where inmates are subjected to third degree torture, worst form of degradation and humiliation.

They urged the UN Human Rights Commission and other International Organizations to take serious note of the human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir at the hands of Indian forces.
