Chairman of the moderate faction of the Hurriyat Conference Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who is attending the 21st International Human Rights conference at Geneva, will rake up the unmarked graves issue in Kashmir during the conference.
He is also planning to present a documentary on “torture practices” in Kashmir during the conference. The Mirwaiz left for Delhi today morning, from where he will fly to Geneva to attend the conference.
“The Mirwaiz would raise the issue of discovery of unmarked graves in Kashmir before international human rights defenders,” said Hurriyat spokesman Shahid-ul-Islam.
“The Mirwaiz would raise the issue of discovery of unmarked graves in Kashmir before international human rights defenders,” said Hurriyat spokesman Shahid-ul-Islam.
He said, “The Mirwaiz would talk about how the government has been callous about not digging deeper to find whether those buried in graves were people subjected to enforced disappearance.”
An inquiry by the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) and human rights activists has found 2,156 bodies buried in unmarked graves at 38 places in north Kashmir.
The Association of Parents of Disappeared Persons (APDP), which says around 10,000 people have gone missing in the past 20 years, claims that many (missing persons) may have ended up in the unmarked graves.
In a petition before the SHRC, the APDP had demanded DNA test of the bodies buried in the unmarked graves, which was rejected by the state government in its Action Taken Report to the SHRC.
“The Mirwaiz would also present a detailed account about gross human rights violations with prisoners living in sub-human conditions in various jails,” the spokesman said.
The spokesman said the Hurriyat chairman would also appeal to the international community to “address the issue of human rights violations and prisoners rights” in Kashmir.
