In a statement, the OIC’s human rights organ denounced the killings which the Indian occupation forces themselves confessed as ‘excessive wrongdoing’ under draconian Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA).

“Admission of this heinous act reinforces IPHRC’s repeated concerns on intensity & frequency of such crimes committed by Indian forces in IIOJK with impunity under AFSPA supported by the State apparatus under the Hindutva ideology and widely condemned by UN, OHCHR and OIC,” the commission said.

The IPHRC urged the international community to establish commission of inquiry under United Nations (UN) to investigate those extrajudicial killings and grave human rights violations and urge India to repeal AFSPA and PSA and respect Kashmiris’ right to self-determination as per UN and OIC resolutions.

President of Malaysia Consultative Council of Islamic Organization Mohammad Azmi Abdul Hamid issued a statement in Kuala Lumpur.

He urged the United Nations to intervene and halt the unabated brutalities by Indian forces in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K).

He said the Indian forces have violated all international laws and are executing crimes against humanity in the illegally occupied territory.
