LATEST FIGURES OF INDIAN ATROCITIES
"According to the latest figures, so far over 66,158 Kashmiris have been killed since January 1989 at the hands of security forces which amounts to an average of over 8,000 deaths per year. The puppet Chief Minister of Indian Occupied Kashmir, Dr. Farooq
Abdullah had himself quoted in an interview with BBC on 4 November 1995 that over 50,000 Kashmiris had been killed till then. According to the shocking details, out of these 66,158 deaths, 59,170 Kashmiris were killed by indiscriminate firing, 585 people
were burnt alive, 2,235 people were tortured to death, 568 people were tied and drowned in river Jhelum while over 3,600 people were killed as they were crossing into liberated area. Meanwhile, the number of people reported missing or disappeared and
those who have gone into hiding out of fear for their lives as well as those who have been forced to leave their homes, exceeds 1,00,000. Since 1989, over 38,450 people have been rendered disabled or crippled for live, 2,100 were tortured resulting in
renal failure, 710 children were reported with broken limbs in hospitals while 461 school children were burnt alive. 19,020 youths were tortured whereas nearly 5,000 are still in torture cells, while 70,600 men and women remain in prison without trial
and 36,000 refugees have crossed cease-fire line in distress and fear.
These atrocities are the handiwork of ruthless Indian forces who at the behest of their commanders and rulers want to break the will and voice of Kashmiris through all possible cruel forms of repression. The Commanders, Governors and Generals in control
of these forces are directly responsible for the brutal orgy of death and destruction being played in the valley, since their 4 orders and instructions are pre-requisite in action undertaken by the troops in the name of keeping `Security and Peace' in
the valley".
NOTE: This is an outdated information reflecting only the first ten years. Since then, the custodial killings and extra-judicial killings have tremendously increased due to wrath brought by the renegade elements, who are supported by the Indian army and the puppet government.
