SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) has expressed its grave concern over the continued detention of Kashmiri Hurriyat leaders, rights defenders, journalists and civil society activists who have been arrested before and after 5th August 2019.In a statement issued on Tuesday, the DFP Spokesman Advocate Arshad Iqbal said that the international community should come forward in a big way to help resolve the long-standing dispute that has been the main cause and consequence of bloodshed in the region.The spokesman said that the international human rights organizations must take stock of the situation and play their due role to bring an end to the barbaric brutalities being inflicted on Kashmiri people.He said that the Indian troops operating under a shield of draconian laws have unleashed a reign of terror in the occupied Kashmir. Referring to the intensified repression ahead of parliamentary elections, he said, 'Innocent people are being harassed and humiliated during cordon and search operations'. The spokesman said that Indian secret agencies were compelling the Kashmiri people to support the BJP government and its local proxies in the parliamentary elections.On the other hand, he said that the occupation authorities have been given a free hand to terrorize the families of Hurriyat leaders by attaching their houses and properties.He said such mean tactics wouldn't deter Kashmiri resistance leaders from pursuing the collective cause for which they have given unprecedented sacrifices.
