In occupied Kashmir, Peoples Democratic Party President and former puppet Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has expressed concern over the victimization of the families of freedom activists by Indian forces.
In a statement in Srinagar, she said such repressive measures only deepen the alienation.
Mehbooba said she has visited various areas of south Kashmir’s Pulwama district and during her visit met a woman, who was recently arrested by male policemen just because she was allegedly sister of a mujahid.
