ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) for Human Rights and Women Empowerment, Mushaal Hussein Mullick has vociferously condemned the Indian authorities’ inhumane behavior towards her husband, Chairman JKLF (Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front) Mohammad Yasin Malik.
In a statement here on Friday, she said Yasin Malik’s health has deteriorated to an alarming level after he stopped taking medicines in protest to inhuman behavior of authorities for their delaying tactics to take him to the hospital for proper medical treatment, despite court orders.
Mushaal Mullick said the expired and outdated pacemaker implanted in him had now gone ineffective, endangering his life. She said, in addition to his heart problems, Yasin Malik was also suffering from kidney ailment.
She said according to confirmed reports his body weight had also dropped to a great extent, which was a great cause of concern. She said as per reports, the health of Muhammad Yasin Malik, was deteriorating speedily due to lack of his proper medical treatment in Tihar Jail.
The SAPM said just two weeks ago, Yasin Malik’s mother had approached a court in Delhi to draw the court’s attention towards the deteriorating health condition of her son and over concerns of the lack of interest of the authorities towards his health.
In her plea to court, his mother also expressed her readiness to bear the expenses of her son’s treatment. Mushaal Mullick said that her husband Yasin Malik’s worsening health condition and court orders demanded that Yasin Malik should have been immediately transferred to the hospital and kept there under the supervision of doctors until his full recovery.
She said Yasin Malik was taken to a government hospital in Delhi on February 13 only after his condition deteriorated to alarming level. She said despite the court orders to keep him under supervision in hospital, authorities brought him back to the jail after just a routine medical checkup.
The SAPM appealed the International human rights institutions to intervene so that the precious life of the most popular pro-freedom political leader of the people of the Jammu Kashmir was saved.
She further emphasized that the resilient people and leadership of Jammu and Kashmir cannot be intimidated or subdued through false and fabricated cases, nor by employing heavy-handed and inhumane tactics.
