APHC stages protest in Srinagar against Shopian killings
ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT OLNINE):In occupied Kashmir, the All Parties Hurriyat Conference staged a protest at Hyderpora in Srinagar against the killing of civilians in Indian army’s firing on a private car in south Kashmir’s Shopian district.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the protesters rued the silence of the United Nations and international community over the civilian killings in the occupied territory. Carrying banners and placards reading ‘Stop Civilian Killings’, ‘Stop Genocide’ and ‘Civilian Killings Unacceptable’, the protesters raised anti-India and pro-freedom slogans.
The protesters criticized the PDP-led puppet regime for its treachery saying, “On one hand, they are maintaining criminal silence and on the other, they are laying curbs and strangulating genuine voices. They are hand in glove with assailants. The lust of power has turned them blind and beasts.”
Indian police arrested APHC leader, Syed Imtiyaz Haider, and did not allow the protesters to move towards Lal Chowk.
