JAMMU, Dec 5: JKLF leader, murderer and the so-called Gandhi of Kashmir Yasin Malik is very angry these days. The immediate cause of anger is the court judgment against "ex-militants" and separatists. On Monday, presiding officer TADA Court Sanjeev Gupta awarded double life imprisonment to Nazir Ahmad Sheikh alias Gul Danter and Showkat Ahmad Khan alias Pupwaja and five years rigorous imprisonment to Farooq Ahmad Chichoo alleged militants of Hizbul Mujahidden outfit. The judicial process took 22 long years. In other words, the Gul Danter and Pupwaja were awarded punishment after 22 years of investigation and trial.
And still Yasin Malik has been feeling quite up set and perturbed. He has described the conviction as the "Government of India's attempt to defeat people (read extremists and separatists) through judiciary". He should have hailed the judiciary for the simple reason that it took so long to convict the militants and separatists, but he didn't. On the contrary, he announced the same day that he and his supporters would take out a protest march from Maisuma (his stronghold) to Lal Chowk (Srinagar) after prayers on Friday. The JKLF also called a Kashmir-wide shutdown on December 10. December 10 is the World Human Rights Day and the violators of human rights and mercenaries will take out a candle procession on the same evening. It's strange.
Bar Association Jammu (BAJ) took cognizance of the JKLF leader's fulmination and attack on India and the Indian judiciary and held an emergent meeting to express what called its "grave concern" over the statement issued by the JKLF leader and denounced his and his separatist outfit for calling for a shutdown in the Kashmir Valley in "protest against the awarding of life imprisonment to two militants by the TADA Court". BAJ president B S Slathia stated that the "judicial system in the country is an independent" and that the "institution working towards justice dispensation…has emerged as a last ray of hope for those seeking justice". He went to urge the state government to "deal firmly with those who castigate the judicial system", saying that "any laxity on the part of the government can encourage the subversive forces active in the state to discourage judges/judicial officers from performing their duties without any fear or favour". The upshot of his whole reaction was that the "verdict of a law court cannot be allowed to be protested on streets" and that it would be a sad day if the "state government becomes a mute spectator to the seditious and contemptuous statements issued by the likes of Yasin Malik who is attempting to cast aspersions on the Courts while facing charges of sedition".
The other part is the selection of Friday as a day of protest. Why the likes Yasin Malik choose Friday to hold protest demonstrations? They choose Friday because the devotees of Allah gather on this day every week at the various mosques to offer prayers and seek solace and the unpopular extremists and the fake freedom fighters like Yasin Malik use the opportunity to make their presence felt. They know that people are not with them and that's the reason they play with the sentiments of the devotees and try to arouse popular passions and seek to convey an impression that the people are with them, which is not the case
