Complete shutdown observed on Saturday against illegal detention of Hurriyet leaders stepped up gross human rights violations by Indian police and troops in the territory. Call for the shutdown has been given by veteran Kashmiri Hurriyet leader, Syed Ali Gilani, to draw the world attention towards the atrocities of the occupation troops on the innocent people in the territory, KMS reported.
Syed Ali Gilani, who is under house arrest in Srinagar, in a statement said India was using oppressive tactics against the Kashmiris to suppress their just struggle for right of self-determination. On the other hand, Indian troops in their fresh act of state terrorism martyred two more innocent Kashmiri youth in Habdipora area of Shopian, today, during a siege and search operation, which continued till last reports came in.
