Indian Military General supports Rape of Kashmiri Muslim women on live TV debate: Indian media report

ISLAMABAD - Indian Military General supports Rape of Kashmiri Muslim women on live TV debate, Indian media report has revealed.

President Dr Arif Alvi has hit out at a former Indian military general for supporting rape of Kashmiri women during a TV debate, where he can be heard saying “death in return for death, and rape in return for rape”.

“Disgraceful. Maj Gen (R) SP Sinha a leader of BJP advocates rape of Kashmiri women on TV,” said the president in a tweet on Sunday.

“Imagine the fate of women in Indian Occupied Kashmir [IOK] where such men wield power with total impunity,” he added.

Occupied Kashmir has been under lockdown since August 5 when the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP government revoked the autonomous status of the disputed region in a bid to convert the Muslim majority of the area into minority.

President Alvi also shared a Human Rights Watch report’s link link on his official Twitter handle saying: “Indian forces have used rape as a tool according to HRW report.”
