Srinagar, April 05 (KMS): Stating that disgracing of women is being used as a war weapon by the Indian Army to punish Kashmiris for their demand of right to self-determination, noted Indian human rights activists and anthropologist Dr Anjana Chatterjee said, 7000 Kashmiri women have been gang raped in homes, streets and army camps by Indian troops in occupied Kashmir. While speaking at a seminar ‘Experience of Detainees’ in Srinagar quoting a Human Rights Watch report, Kolkatta based activist, Chatterjee said that 63 interrogation centres are located in Kashmir Valley, 26 of which fall in Srinagar district with 19 centres in Srinagar city alone.“

“There had been more than 75 thousands deaths in Kashmir and over eight thousand cases of disappearances which shows that there is a continuous genocide of Kashmiris,” she said, adding she would raise the issue in international forums and demand commissioning of an international committee to look into the levels and number of tortures committed by Indian troops in Jammu and Kashmir. Speaking on the occasion noted Indian civil society activist, Gautam Naulakha said he is ashamed of being an Indian and feels disgraced to belong to a nation, which is committing war crimes on Kashmiris for their demand of right to self-determination. He said, “It is believed that more than 60,000 Kashmiris have been tortured in prisons and interrogation centres by Indian Army and the levels of torture committed on Kashmiris have no match in the entire world.”

Naulakha said that there is a need to document these tortures and file them in the court on test bases to see the outcome of the judiciary, adding the documentation will internationalise the issue of tortures, which have not been reported over the last 18 years. Kashmiri journalist and human rights activist, Zahir-ud-din blamed International Crescent Red cross Society and Amnesty International for their failure to highlight the issue of human Rights violation in Jammu and Kashmir. Another human rights activist Pervez Imroz said, “There is a need to expose Indian military might at international level for their war crimes in Kashmir and the only way to do that is to document these tortures and extra judicial killings.”
