Shocking: Iltija Mufti on policeman kicking woman protester in J&K
In a shocking incident that has sparked outrage and condemnation, a video has surfaced showing a policeman kicking a female protester in Jammu and Kashmir. The incident took place in the Death Valley area of Kulgam, where a group of protesters had gathered to demand justice for the mysterious deaths that have been reported in the region.
The video shows a policeman, dressed in his uniform, kicking a woman protester with full force. The woman is seen trying to protect herself, but the policeman’s kick is too strong, and she falls to the ground. The incident is believed to have taken place on June 13, but the video only surfaced recently, sparking widespread outrage and condemnation.
Reacting to the video, Iltija Mufti, the daughter of former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and a prominent politician in her own right, said that the incident was “shocking and unbecoming” for a policeman to behave in such a manner. “It’s this high-handed behaviour from those expected to uphold the law that creates a trust deficit…alienating people even further,” she added.
Iltija Mufti’s comments are in line with the widespread outrage and condemnation that has been expressed by people across the country. The incident is seen as a stark reminder of the lack of accountability and respect for human rights in Jammu and Kashmir, where security forces have been accused of using excessive force against protesters and civilians.
The incident took place in the Death Valley area of Kulgam, which has been the epicenter of protests in recent weeks. The protests were sparked by the mysterious deaths of several youngsters in the region, which have been attributed to the consumption of toxic substances. The protesters are demanding justice and an investigation into the deaths, but their demands have been met with violence and repression from the security forces.
The Indian Express reported that the police had denied any wrongdoing, and claimed that the incident was being investigated. However, the video has sparked widespread outrage, and many have called for action to be taken against the policeman involved.
The incident has also sparked concerns about the safety and well-being of women protesters in Jammu and Kashmir. The region has a long history of human rights abuses, and women have often been at the forefront of protests and resistance movements. The incident is seen as a stark reminder of the risks and dangers that women protesters face in the region.
Iltija Mufti’s comments also highlighted the need for accountability and transparency from the security forces in Jammu and Kashmir. “It’s this high-handed behaviour from those expected to uphold the law that creates a trust deficit…alienating people even further,” she said. Her comments are in line with the widespread calls for accountability and transparency that have been made by human rights groups and civil society organizations.
The incident has also sparked concerns about the impact of the security forces’ actions on the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The region has been under a military lockdown for several months, and the security forces have been accused of using excessive force against protesters and civilians. The incident is seen as a stark reminder of the need for a peaceful and political solution to the crisis in the region.
In conclusion, the incident of a policeman kicking a woman protester in Jammu and Kashmir is shocking and unacceptable. It highlights the need for accountability and transparency from the security forces in the region, and the need for a peaceful and political solution to the crisis. Iltija Mufti’s comments are in line with the widespread outrage and condemnation that has been expressed by people across the country, and her call for action to be taken against the policeman involved is a reminder of the need for justice and accountability.
