KASHMIR DIASPORA ALLIANCE STRONGLY CONDEMNS THE STRATEGIC
DETENTION OF QUAID-E-INQALAB JANAB SYED ALI GEELANI SAHIB BY THE INDIAN
GOVERNMENT AFTER HE HAD ORGANIZED A SPEECH IN MAQBOOZA KASHMIR:
HABIB
YOUSAFZAI, CHAIRMAN OF THE KASHMIR DIASPORA ALLIANCE
ASSALAM-O-ALAIKUM!
Kashmir Diaspora Alliance strongly condemns the detention of
Quaid-e-Inqalab Janab Syed Ali Geelani Sahib. He was strategically detained on
Wednesday, December 04, 2013 due to the fact that he had organized a speech in
Faiz Panah Tral in Maqbooza Kashmir which has been under occupation by the Indian
forces since October 27, 1947. This is clearly a violation of the freedom of
assembly and an embarrassment for democracy. Shockingly, India claims to be the
largest democracy in the world, a secular society, and a promoter of human
rights. However, in reality, it has clearly shown that whenever any efficacious
action may be taken whether that is organizing a protest, or resisting or
speaking out against the violation of human rights by the Indian government; it
does not hesitate to render those rights as mere paper liberties. As such, the
Indian state should leave its hypocritical path, or, stop claiming to be what
it has proven so many times over that it is not.
