Islamabad - Pakistan People’s Party leader Senator Rehman Malik yesterday asked the United Nations and the world to break silence over Kashmir and stop Indian brutalities in the held territory.

Speaking to journalists after a meeting of the PPP Overseas chapter, the lawmaker said India was crossing all limits in Kashmir by butchering the innocent civilians. He said more than 30 innocent Kashmiris had been put to death by the Indian forces since the last week and appealed the international human rights organizations, particularly the UN Human Rights Commission, to raise voice against the occupant forces.

He urged the world bodies to constitute a commission in order to investigate into recent killings of Kashmiri people. He said the world must know that it was India which broke Pakistan into two pieces and abetted in the separation of East Pakistan in 1971.

He said instead of apologising for this act of interfering in the affairs of another sovereign state, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself proudly confessed it during his visit to Dhaka in Bangladesh. “This crime of interfere in the affairs of another sovereign state falls in the category of war crime, thus the India should be investigated for its war crime,” said Senator Malik.

He said there were such examples in history where countries and states were investigated for war crimes. “Hence I and the people of Pakistan demand that former Indian PM Indra Ghandi and then Indian army chief should be tried,” he added.

Senator Malik called upon the international community and the UN to order an inquiry commission to investigate the war crimes had committed by India in war 1971 in which Indian forces had killed thousands of Pakistanis through Mukti Bahani in the then East Pakistan.

He said Indian not only abetted the Mukti Bani but was involved in the mass killings of Pakistanis as confessed by PM Narendra Modi.

He expressed grave concerns over the statement of Pentagon that US was planning to use Indian satellite in war-torn Afghanistan. He said that Indian Satellite spectrum will be covering the Pakistan region and will put “our security at danger as India is an arch enemy of Pakistan.”

Senator Malik said the news had annoyed the Pakistani nation as India will never remain restricted to use the Satellite for information on weather for Pentagon but it will continue to facilitate India to have surveillances of Pakistan’s all highly sensitive installations.

He said that Afghan President Ashraf Ghani’s recent diatribe against Pakistan at a NATO summit in Warsaw had disappointed Pakistan and it was obvious from the Ghani statement that he was playing in the hands of India.

Earlier, the former interior minister chaired a meeting of the PPP Overseas chapter which was attended by Roy Ghulam Mustafa Kharal Secretary General, President PPP Germany Syed Sajjad Naqvi, and Nargis Faiz Malik Deputy Secretary Information, Ms Palwasha Khan Coordinator women, Mahr Nadeem Coordinator and Riaz Ali Turi coordinator media for PPP Overseas.

In the meeting prayers were offered for the departed soul of Abdul Sattar Edhi and rich tributes were paid to him for his unmatched services for the humanity.

Malik said Abdul Sattar Edhi shall be remembered forever in the history of Pakistan with great love and respect.

The meeting also prayed for Amjad Sabri and his brutal killing was strongly condemned, Malik urged the government to arrest his killers as soon as possible. They also condemned the killing of PPP Kurram Agency President Hamid Hussain Turi and demanded arrest of those involved in his killing.
