SRINAGAR: Indian forces in their fresh act of state terrorism, martyred three more Kashmiri youth in Baramulla district in occupied Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the troops martyred the youth during a cordon and search operation in Baramulla district.
Meanwhile, five Indian army soldiers were also killed and several others injured during the operation in the area.
Earlier this month, the troops martyred two youth each in the Hardshiva area of the town during a cordon and search operations. Indian police and troops sealed all entry and exit points of the areas and conducted an operation in the area.
The authorities also suspended internet service in the districts in entire occupied Kashmir. Meanwhile, the troops during another operation arrested half a dozen youth in different areas of Badgam district.
Last week, Pakistan had strongly condemned the extra-judicial killings of three Kashmiri laborers from Rajouri by the Indian occupation forces in a fake encounter in the Shopian region of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), the Foreign Office (FO) spokesperson said.
The FO spokesperson, Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri, said that over 200 innocent Kashmiris have been martyred by the Indian occupation forces since the beginning of this year in fake encounters and so-called ‘cordon-and-search’ operations.
The condemnable crimes against Kashmiri youth by the Indian forces are being perpetrated with complete impunity, under the cover of draconian laws such as the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), Public Safety Act (PSA) and Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), he added.
