India, amid human rights violations on head doesn't deserve UNSC seat: Geelani
Agence India Press
Bureau Report
November 11, 2010
Srinagar: Hardliner Kashmiri Hurriyat leader, Syed Ali Shah Geelani has said that India does not deserve a United Nations Security Council (UNSC) seat on account of the "war crimes" being committed by its troops across the valley for the last 63 years.
"Besides killing of innocent people, the occupation forces had disappeared more than 10,000 Kashmiris across the occupied territory while mass rape of Kashmiri women had been used as a weapon of war," Geelani in a statement issued in Srinagar said.
"Despite all this if India is to get a UNSC seat, this unjust and immoral act would pose a question mark over the very existence of this international body." He said
He flayed the authorities for adopting a deliberate policy of crushing the Kashmiris' freedom movement through arbitrary arrests, detention of pro-freedom leaders and youth.
"Such tactics cannot suppress the Kashmiris' indigenous liberation movement and they will continue the just struggle for securing their inalienable right to self-determination," Geelani who is spearheading the ongoing "Go India GO Movement" maintained.
Kashmir valley has been in deep trouble since more than four months now. More than 110 people have been killed and many more handicapped since June 11 after teenager Tufail Matto of old city area of summer capital Srinagar fell to the teargas canister fired by a police man.
