Islamabad (PID, AJK) Prime Minister Sardar Tanveer Ilyas Khan on Saturday announced to raise the issue of unjust sentencing of JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik by India’s court in a sham trial at all available regional and international forums including the international court of justice (ICJ).
“The mala-fide conviction and sentencing of Yasin Malik in a politically motivated case is totally unacceptable”, the PM said this while talking to the media here on Saturday. Highlighting the JKLF chief’s supreme sacrifices, the AJK PM said that Malik has rendered matchless sacrifices for the Kashmir cause and endured unendurable hardships at the hands of the Indian occupation forces.
Welcoming the OIC’s statement, the PM said that the government and people of Azad Kashmir stand shoulder to shoulder with Yasin Malik. “Malik believes in peaceful struggle, he has always sought a peaceful settlement of Kashmir dispute through dialogue and diplomacy”, the prime minister said, adding that Malik was being punished for his political beliefs.
He said that a comprehensive mechanism would be devised to take the issue to all forums including the International Court of Justice. In this regard, the PM said, services of international law experts will also be sought to raise the issue effectively.
