Ambassador Jilani hands over dossier on Indian brutalities to US
By APPWASHINGTON: Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United States Jalil Abbas Jilani on Monday met with Ambassador Richard Olson, the US Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan at the State Department and handed over a dossier containing information on the gross human rights violations by the Indian security forces in the Indian Occupied Kashmir.
Ambassador Jilani emphasized that the international community and especially the United States should take note of the inhuman and degrading treatment being meted out to the innocent Kashmiris including women and children.
He said the US being a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council should impress upon India to immediately end the state sponsored terrorism against innocent civilians who have been indiscriminately targeted by Indian forces.
It was also emphasized that the right to self determination was granted to the people of Kashmir by the United Nations which could not be unilaterally denied by India.
Ambassador Jilani further underscored that the international community must ensure that India as a member of the United Nations should allow access to international human rights and humanitarian organizations to assess the factual situation in the held valley.
