Twitterati bash India as #AmnestyScreamsOnKashmir
Netizens supported Amnesty's report and urged international community to play role in Kashmir issue.
(Web Desk) – The global human rights group Amnesty International has slammed India for lack of accountability amid 25 years of human rights violations in Indian occupied Kashmir in its latest report titled: “Denied: Failures in accountability for human rights violations by security force personnel in Jammu and Kashmir”.
The report notes that 5th July, 2015 will mark the completion of 25 years since enactment of AFSPA and calls for immediate removal of the oppressive law.
“If the Army knew they would be charged, and will have to go to court and be prosecuted, they will think ten times before they pull their triggers on an innocent…The AFSPA is a like a blank cheque from the government of India to kill innocents like my nephew”, Amnesty was told by uncle of 17-year-old Javaid Ahmad Magray who was killed in 2003.
"Till now, not a single member of the security forces deployed in the state has been tried for human rights violations in a civilian court. This lack of accountability has in turn facilitated other serious abuses"
By not addressing human rights violations committed by security force personnel in the name of national security, India has not only failed to uphold its international obligations, but has also failed its own Constitution.
Twitterati have taken the platform of social media and denounced Indian government over their brutal violence in Kashmir and appreciated Amnesty by trending #AmnestyScreamsOnKashmir.
