Jammu, Mar 28: Amid raging debate over the exodus of Kashmiri Hindus from the Valley, the International Commission for Human Rights and Religious Freedom (ICHRRF) officially recognized the genocide of Kashmiri Hindus in 1989-91.
ICHRRF held a special public hearing on the issue of the Kashmiri Hindu Genocide (1989-1991) on March 27th, 2022, during which a number of victims and survivors of ethnic and cultural cleansing testified under oath and submitted evidence. ICHRRF is fully committed to promoting human rights and fundamental freedoms to unify humanity.
“The Commission stands for ensuring the dignity of the victims and survivors of genocide and crimes against humanity and pursuing justice for these heinous acts”, a press note issued by ICHRRF reads.
“Profoundly heartbreaking, several Kashmiri Hindu victims of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and exile from their homeland, courageously shared their traumatic stories of endurance, survival, and recovery from atrocious human rights violations at the hands of radical Islamic terrorists that mirrored the Jewish Holocaust”, ICHRRF mentioned.
“Thousands of homes and temples were destroyed. Over 400,000 of Kashmiri Hindu men, women, and children were forced into exile by Islamic terrorists at gunpoint, ejected from their homes and everything they’ve known. Women were gangraped, cut into two pieces with a saw and killed in the most brutal manner”, handout stated.
Now, this culture is on the brink of extinction after self-advocacy over the course of 32 years, has been unsuccessful. Those who chose to remain in their homeland did so in faith believing in the goodness of their neighbors. The victims and survivors affirmed hope, peace, nonviolence, and safety, and found themselves raped, tortured, and executed by radical Islamic terrorists. Abused corpses were denied cultural funeral traditions and desecrated in psychological warfare to intimidate and control the remaining masses. |
