Where are Pscedo human rights activists?
11/9/2006 10:42:15 PM




The terrorist, who indulge in wanton killings of the innocents day in
and day out, miss no opportunity to malign the security forces and
raise hue and cry over any retaliatory action by them which leads to
the killing of terrorists or sometime innocents, caught in the cross
fire. While the Kashmiri secessionists cry foul over any killing by
the security forces, even if it is in an operation against the
insurgents who target them or the civilians. Even the so-called human
rights activists join course with the secessionists and the militants
in defaming the security forces over slightest provocation or over a
real or trumped up excuse. But they turn blind eye over any brutal
action by the terrorists either against the security personnel or even
against the innocent civilians. Not a single voice has been raised
from any of these quarters over the merciless killing of four members
of a single family in a remote Manglogi belt of Ranban district on
November 4. Four members of a family, cousin sisters, Mobina 25 and
Shahida 30 and Mobina's parents Ahad Bhatt and Fatima were mercilessly
killed by the militants suspected to be from Hizbul Mujahaidden, for
the refusal of the parents to marry their daughters to two militants
of the HM outfit. Forcing their entry into the house of Ahad Bhatt
these militants sprayed bullets and all the four members present in
the house were killed on spot. According to the police a group of
local militants were threatening Bhatt to accept the marriage
proposals of two alleged militants for his daughter Mobina and niece
Shahida. Taking Bhatt's refusal to the proposal as an insult, the
militants in a good number, armed with weapons barged into the house
of Bhatt and eliminated all the four members of the family present
there. This incident is not a solitary one or exception. The
terrorists belonging to various outfits invariably indulge in
molesting and plundering the honour of woman folk and committing rapes
not only in the remote areas, but even in the populous localities in
the towns. The killing of the victims for their refusal to provide
shelter, hide out and food to the militants who forcibly barge into
the houses of innocent villagers, is a common feature. But strangely
the conscious of the secessionist, who pretend to be standing on high
moral pedestal in the matter of protecting the honour of woman folk,
is not shaken. Rarely the common people in Kashmir rises to protest
against such heinous acts of the militants, out of fear of reprisal.
While any case of dishonour to women even unintentionally by the
security personnel is blown out of proportion, using it as a tool of
propaganda to malign the forces no voice is raised against looting of
the honour of women or solemnizing forced marriages by the militants.
While one cannot expect better from the secessionists, who leave no
chance to strengthened their propaganda angle projecting the security
forces as the forces of occupation, the silence on the part of pscedo
human rights activists over such incidents is intriguing
