The Indian major has walked off unpunished proving Pakistan's accusations against 'puppet govt'

(Web Desk) – Indian major was given ‘clean chit’ on Monday after he tied a Kashmiri man to bonnet of the jeep to shield himself and other passengers of stone-pelting by protesters last month.

A video that surfaced in April showed a Kashmiri man tied to the bonnet of the jeep in bid to move protesters to not hurl stones.

The brutally disgusting violation of human rights had little effect on the jury probing the issue after a furor.

The Indian major has walked off unpunished proving Pakistan’s accusations against ‘puppet government’ of Occupied Kashmir valley.

Kashmiris have been demanding right to self determination ever since partition of India and Pakistan in 1947.

Former Chief Minister (CM) of Jammu and Kashmir, Omar Abdullah had taken to social media last month to condemn the incident. "This young man was TIED to the front of an army jeep to make sure no stones were thrown at the jeep? This is just so shocking!!!!" He had stated on Twitter.

On April 26, Indian forces had ordered internet service providers to block popular social media services including Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp after an upsurge in violence in the region.

The local government said that the services were "being misused at hands of anti-national and anti-social elements" and should be blocked for one month or until further notice "in the interest of maintenance of public order".

It was the first time the government has taken the step, although it regularly blocks the mobile internet signal in the volatile Kashmir valley.
