ISLAMABAD,(MILLAT+APP): The brothers of martyred college
lecturer, Shabbir Ahmad Mangoo, and ATM guard, Riyaz Ahmad Shah,
have refused to accept the compensation of Rs 500,000 announced by
the puppet Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Mehbooba Mufti in the
so-called Kashmir Assembly had said that the families of victims
would be given Rs 500,000 compensation and Special Investigation
Teams (SITs) would probe their killings.
Aijaz Ahmad, the brother of 30-year-old college lecturer,
Shabbir Ahmad who was killed by Indian Army in Khrew, told media
that the money offered by the authorities was like “rubbing salts
on our wounds.”
“The money or job won’t return my brother. The government
whose armed forces killed my brother has not done us a favour.
Shabbir would have secured a well-placed job because he was
pursuing a PhD. The larger question is about the delivery of
justice. Since my brother was murdered, not even a single official
visited my home. A probe has been ordered, but four months have
passed and the person who killed my brother is still on duty,”
Aijaz Ahmad said.
Shakeel Ahmad, brother of ATM guard, Riyaz Ahmad Shah, who
was killed by Indian police by firing pellets on him while he was
returning home in Srinagar’s Chattabal area late at night, said
that the authorities had done nothing to punish his killers.
“We don’t need money or job; we want to know about the
killers and then about their punishment,” he said.
