Jul 09, 2020

Geneva (Switzerland), Jul 10 (ANI): National Equality Party JKGBL, Chairman Sajjad Raja while speaking at UNHRC’s 44th session on July 09 said that the extrajudicial killings taking place in Pakistan occupied so called ‘Azad’ Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan are not acceptable. He said, “The citizens of Azad Kashmir stand before you today, seeking intervention on the repression and extra judicial killings of our people - ‘AZAD’ means ‘free’, but this is a false label that has been attached to our people to hide the truth in a disgusting way. In fact, any dissent towards Pakistan is mercilessly crushed through lent officers, army atrocities and the ISI. Today even the Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir is agitating against the Pakistani bullying for forcing constitutional changes through the 14th amendment in Act 74 down our throats in the name of Islam and brotherhood.”
