ISLAMABAD, (APP): The United Jihad Council while
dismissing India’s claim has said that the youth martyred after
being dubbed infiltrators by Indian Army were detained innocent
Kashmiris, who were killed in fake encounters in Uri.
A UJC spokesman in a statement said, “It’s a fabricated
story to hoodwink and mislead Indian population on the one hand
and the international community on the other, amid unrelenting
repression in the held territory.” He termed the Army’s statement
as a pack of lies aimed at diverting the world attention from the
worst-ever atrocities unleashed by Indian forces in occupied
Kashmir,Kashmir Media Service reported.
Indian army had claimed that it had shot dead at least 10
intruders in Uri. The UJC spokesman questioned the veracity of
Indian claim on the basis of logic.
“Already a heavily militarized area, military concentration
has seen increased in Uri after Sunday’s attack. In the presence
of such a tight security apparatus, how can anyone infiltrate from
across the Line of Control,” he questioned. Terming it a fake
encounter, the UJC spokesman said Indian army’s history was
replete with such fake encounters.
“In fact, all those alleged intruders were innocent Kashmiri
detainees facing unlawful incarceration in different prisons and
interrogation centres. They were brought there and gunned down to
compensate the indignity and embarrassment Indian troops earned on
Sunday,” the spokesman added.
