Black day: Kashmir
Council EU expresses solidarity with people in IHK
Expressing solidarity
with the people of Indian Held Kashmir, the Kashmir Council EU has made an
urgent appeal to the international community to come forward and ask India to
grant the Kashmiris their inalienable right of self-determination.
The appeal was made
during a meeting held by Kashmir Council EU in connection with ‘black day’
(‘Day of occupation’ of Kashmir by the Indian forces) here in Brussels. The
meeting headed by Chairman Kashmir Council EU was attended by the council
members and other important personalities.It is pertinent to
mention that Indian foreign occupation forces entered Kashmir on October 27th,
1947 and the Kashmiris of both parts of Indian Held (IHK) and Pakistan
Administered (AJK) and based in other parts of the world observe the day as
black day.
The participants of
the meeting asked the India to withdraw its forces from the held Kashmir and
allow the Kashmiris to decide freely about their political future.They also demanded
impartial investigation of thousands of unnamed mass graves discovered in IHK.
If India is not presenting the culprits involved in the killing of the innocent
people buried in the graves, the International community should pressurized
India to present the responsible personnel. They also emphasize for DNA of the
bodies buried in the graves.They participants
said, India is a flagrant violator of international law, in particular
reference to the mass graves, rapes, murder, forcible arrest of Kashmiri
leaders, imprisonment, coercion and fear in the held Kashmir.
Addressing the meeting
Mr.Ali Raza Syed reiterated that the people of Kashmir should be given neither
more nor less than what has been afforded to Namibia, the East Timor,
Montenegro and Southern Sudan: a self-determination vote conducted and monitored
by the United Nations and international observers.
He said that peace in
South Asia in general and Kashmir in particular is too important. He urged both
India and Pakistan to include the recognized leadership of Jammu & Kashmir
in all future negotiations on the issue, emphasizing that with Kashmiri
participation, anything is possible but without it, nothing is.
He called the
international community to interfere to stop the large scale human rights
violation in IHK.
It was decided in the meeting that Kashmir Council EU would hold a
protest demonstration against Indian occupation on IHK. The protest would be
arranged with cooperation of other organizations.
