ISLAMABAD: Pakistan condemned the “brutal and indiscriminate” treatment by Indian forces that resulted in the deaths of at least 11 young Kashmiris in Indian-administered Kashmir on Sunday.
Violence erupted on Sunday with gunbattles between suspected militants and Indian security forces.
Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying that the continuing crackdown, “especially the use of pellet guns on protesters, including youth and children and the suspension of Internet services,” was an attempt to “subjugate and further repress the innocent Kashmiris.”
Indian officials said that in separate encounters three soldiers were killed and Indian security forces also gunned down 11 “terrorists”.
In recent years tensions have risen again as young Kashmiris protest against the use of force on civilians.
“We have repeatedly pointed out that the Kashmiri youth is being deliberately and systematically targeted with a view to breaking the will of the Kashmiri people,” Pakistan’s Foreign Office said in a statement.
Pakistan also expressed its full solidarity with the people of Jammu and Kashmir and urged the international community to recognize the “gross and systematic violations of fundamental human rights, including the most basic human right to life.
“Pakistan also calls upon the world community to play its rightful role in promoting a just and lasting solution of the Kashmir dispute in accordance with relevant UN Security Council resolutions and the wishes of the Kashmiri people,” the Foreign Office statement read.
