The joint resistance leadership including Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Muhammad Yasin Malik has called for complete shutdown on May 28 and 29 against killing of Hizb commander Sabzar Ahmad and his associate in Tral, and six other militants in Rampur sector.

The joint resistance leaders while paying tributes to slain militants blamed Indian authorities for “prevailing appalling situations” in the state, saying that “their (Indian authorities) rigid and unrealistic approach is the root cause of uncertainty in state.”

 “We condemn the use of unjustified and brute force against peaceful mourners and ask people to attend condolence meeting on May 30 in Tral to pay tributes to slain youth. Excessive and unjustified use of brute force against peaceful mourners and killing of a civilian in Tral is state sponsored terrorism. It is inevitable to call shutdown against this inhuman and senseless act to register our resentment,” they said.

Elaborating, they said that “millions of people in 2008, 2010 and 2016 while pursuing their genuine struggle, insisted for right to self-determination” and instead of showing any serious concern, “were showered with bullets and pellets.”

“Hundreds were brutally killed, thousands maimed and scores blinded. Indian authorities have adopted unrealistic and stubborn attitude. Youth of state feel highly distressed and are left with no option but to pick up arms. Our brave hearts are highly educated, mature, dedicated and committed to cause. Most of these youths were haunted, chased and subjected to third degree torture by police and forces, thus compelled to pick up arms against this barbarism and forced slavery,” they said.

“It is natural phenomenon and resentment and as such those youth subjected to humiliation and torture have only one option to resent the coercion with might and their resolve,” they said.

Paying glorious tributes to the slain, the leadership said, “It is moral duty to pay our respects to these brave hearts. Our children are choosing this path because of the rigidity and stubbornness of India and they are sacrificing their today for the tomorrow of their nation.”

Condemning the forces for “unjustified and brute force” on peaceful mourners, resistance leadership blamed authorities for “adding fuel to fire.”

The leaders said restraining them “to mourn our slain youth is against all ethics and condemnable.”
