Sehrai concerned about detainees’ plight in jails

In Occupied Kashmir, senior APHC leader and the Chairman of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat Jammu and Kashmir, Muhammad Ashraf Sehrai, has expressed concern over ill-treatment meted out to the Kashmiri prisoners in jails.

He said in a statement in Srinagar that the Kashmiri detainees are being punished for their political belief and legitimate political rights.

He urged the world bodies and international organizations fighting for the prisoners’ justice to visit the jails in Jammu and Kashmir and also various prisons in India where Kashmiri prisoners are lodged.

He stressed them to build pressure on the Indian government to release these prisoners who demand their legitimate right, the right to self-determination.
