In Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K), the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) while condemning the gross violations of human rights at the hands of Indian occupational forces has said the incessant cordon and search operations and curfew have become a routine matter.

APHC Secretary Human Rights affairs, Arshad Aziz in a statement issued in Srinagar said, people’s fundamental rights have been strangulated and they are living a hellish life under the worst military siege.

He said random arrests, showering teargas shells and bullets are frequently used under the shield of draconian laws to curb the legitimate demands of the people, including the demand for right to self-determination.
