ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT ONLINE/APP): The Chairman of All Parties
Hurriyet Conference Syed Ali Gilani and the Hurriyet forum led by
Mirwaiz Umar Farooq expressing deep concern over mysterious
killings in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district have said that there
is no justification for these killings.
Syed Ali Gilani in a statement issued in Srinagar said, “It
is unfair and against humanity to kill a person for his specific
ideology or affiliations.” He added that the mysterious killings
were against the teachings of Islam, KMS reported.
The Mirwaiz-led Hurriyet forum in a statement also denounced
the killing of Advocate Imtiyaz Ahmad Khan by unidentified men in
Pinjoora Shopian.
Meanwhile, Kashmir High Court Bar Association in a statement
said that the slain Pinjoora advocate was not a political
activist. It said that he was a supporter of the Kashmir cause and
through his posts he had requested the people to be careful, so
that they are not deceived by any pro-India politician.
Advocate Imtiyaz Ahmad Khan was killed by unidentified
gunmen on Sunday at Pinjoora in Shopian when he was coming back
from a mosque after Isha prayers.
