False accusations to slash PSA on Dr. Aala Fazili & Fahad Shah condemned by Farooq Rehmani

ISLAMABAD, Oct 15 (SABAH): Muhammad Farooq Rehmani, Chairman Jammu and Kashmir People’s Freedom League and ex-Convener All Parties Hurriyat Conference, has lambasted Indian establishment in Srinagar to reject bail applications of Dr. Abdul Aala Fazili and Fahad Shah after over 7 months in Kotbalwal jail, and detaining both of them under the notorious draconian law- the so-called J&K Public Safety Act , which gives unlimited powers to the Indian authorities to keep a kashmiri political detainee in prison as long as they wish.

Dr. Aala Fazili is a PhD scholar in Pharmaceutical science and had finalised and published his thesis when he was arrested by the NIA last May and put in different interrogation centres for fabricated charges of so called anti-India activities. Fahad Shah is a young journalist who upholds normal activities of Jammu and Kashmir.

Muhammad Farooq Rehmani stated that India’s Kashmir policy was based on revenge and animosity against its educated youth ,because they they think that the youth didn’t support obscurantist ideology of Hindu BJP racism and anti- Muslim and minority tirade and rhetoric of the Modi regime in India. Indian establishment never wished to see highly educated youth and free lance journalists coming out from the educational institutions and therefore an intensive wave of terror and revenge has been unleashed by the regime across the Occupied territory against youth and their families.

The use of PSA against Dr. Abdul Aala Fazili, Fahad Shah and other students and journalists is part of this dreadful plan, he stated. He warned about consequences of India’s settler-designs and urged on the international human rights organisations to express their explicit support to the terrorised people to tell the UN that India deserved censure and the oppressed kashmiris must be extended equal support as it had been given to other oppressed people in Europe. He demanded immediate release of Kashmiri youth and students and journalists from jails and UN action in the matter of Kashmir.
