J&K Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday urged the Union Home Secretary Rajiv Gauba to ensure safety of Kashmiri separatists lodged in Delhi’s Tihar jail.
She is reported to have raised question mark on the safety of Kashmiri prisoners inside the jail.
Her telephonic talk with Gauba came after the pro-Pakistan separatist leader Syed AlishahGeelani in Srinagar on Monday evening released to media nine pictures of “thrashed” jail inmates. These pictures also became viral on the social media.
Another separatist leader, Mirwaiz Umar Farooqon Tuesday on his tweeter account condemned the “thrashing incident”.
However, authenticity of these pictures was yet to be confirmed as shooting such photos inside or out of the jail was a matter of investigation.
Separatist leaders claimed that the prisoners were beaten up inside the Tihar jail.
All Parties Hurriyat conference (APHC), has expressed “deepconcern over miserable condition” of Kashmiri detainees lodged in Tihar jail and urged international human rights groups to take serious note of it.
