Lives of people of occupied Jammu and Kashmir are at the mercy of brutal Indian troops and even custodial killings have become a norm in the territory.
According to a report released by Kashmir Media Service, today, a Kashmiri youth, Imtiyaz Ahmad Pala, was tortured to death by Indian police at Litter Police Station in Pulwama.
It said thousands of youth have perished in Indian army-run interrogation centers in the last 34 years in IIOJK. Indian troops, under the protection of draconian laws, have killed 96308 Kashmiris, including 7336 in custody, since 1989.
The report said custodial killings in occupied Jammu and Kashmir meant to create fear psychosis among the Kashmiris, adding the people of Kashmir are witnessing fake encounters and extrajudicial killings every now and then in the territory.
