LONDON (PNI) Rising voices against India\u2019s war crimes in Indian Illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIoJK) is welcome and day is not far when India will be held accountable before the international community, Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK President Fahim Kayani said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
The statement by Kayani came after 29 cross-party British lawmakers issued a demarche to Indian envoy in London asking her to uphold human rights of Kashmiris in IIoJK.

\nDebbie Abrahams, chairperson All Party Parliamentary Group for Kashmir \u2013 shot a letter to Indian envoy Gaitri Issar Kumar pointing to fake encounter in Hyderpora and arrest of globally renowned Kashmiri Human Rights activist Khurram Parvez.<\/p>\n
The British lawmakers supported call by Human Rights Watch that India has not been holding transparent investigations in cases of human rights abuse in IIoJK.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe demarche issued to Indian envoy by the British lawmakers exemplifies that voice of Kashmiris is being heard,\u201d Kayani said, thanking Ms Abrahams for taking up the issue with Indian government.<\/p>\n
Khurram Parvez was arrested by India on the pretext, said Abraham, of his human rights work where he criticized Indian forces of violation human rights in IIoJK.<\/p>\n
The British lawmakers also referred to fake encounter in Amshipora where three civilians were killed and dubbed as militants by Indian forces.<\/p>\n
They said 108 magisterial probes were ordered by India since 2008 in IIoJK but to no logical conclusion nor was anyone convicted which demands an independent investigation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe realization by international community of fake encounters followed by fake investigations by India is a win of Kashmiris,\u201d the Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK president said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe fa\u00e7ade of democracy that India wears is being unmasked and its true face where it employs fascism and religious hatred is being exposed to the world,\u201d Kayani said.<\/p>\n
Kayani urged British government led by Prime Minister Boris Johnson to take a cue from APPG and question India\u2019s record in IIoJK.<\/p>\n
\u201cPlay the role of true human rights defender as has been the tradition of democracies,\u201d Kayani urged Johnson. \u201cThe silence of British government on India\u2019s war crimes in IIoJK reeks of hypocrisy and double standards.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cUpholding human rights transcend geo-political interests,\u201d Kayani said.<\/p>\n
He called on other parliamentarians around the world especially the US Congressmen and Senators to open their mouth and hold India accountable for her human rights violations in IIoJK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
