ISLAMABAD: Malaysian parliamentarian Hasanuddin Bin Mohd Younus reiterated his country’s support to Kashmiris’ legitimate cause for freedom.
Malaysian law maker made these assertions while talking to a three-member delegation of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference comprised of Ghulam Muhammad Safi, Altaf Hussain Wani, and Shamim Shawl.
The Hurriyat delegation which called on Malaysian law-maker, apprised him about the prevailing political human rights situation in the region.
Speaking on the occasion Younis said that Malaysia was keenly observing the situation in Indian occupied Kashmir. “Tomorrow I am visiting Azad Kashmir to listen more and, on my return, will brief my colleagues in the parliament and will push the government to play a forceful role in bringing an end to rights violations and for the early solution of the issue”, he said.
The Hurriyat delegation thanked the parliamentarian for the support Malaysia and its civil society has been providing to Kashmir cause, saying that it was high time that the international community particularly the Muslim world should take effective notice of India’s apartheid regime’s political and administrative machinations intended to change the demographic complexion of the Muslim majority state.
Referring to India’s imperialistic policies, the Kashmiri delegation told the Malaysian lawmaker that along with settler colonialism policies the BJP government was using the detention of political leaders, human rights defenders, and other activists as a tool to stifle the voice of dissent in the region.
He was also briefed about the ongoing spree of fake encounters, termination of Muslim employees, land grabbing for more military cantonments, and human rights abuses being committed by the Indian forces in Kashmir.
