KARACHI: The Foreign Office on Friday expressed Pakistan’s strongest commination and rejection of the mala fide conviction and sentencing of Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik in a grossly suspicious and simulated case registered under the draconian laws.
The Indian Charge d’Affaires in Islamabad was called to the FO on May 25 and was conveyed the government of Pakistan’s strong outrage over the largely reprehensible sentencing of Mr. Malik after his conviction on fabricated charges, denial of a fair trial, and inhuman incarceration despite his deteriorating health, which is incomplete defiance of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights, said prophet for FO Asim Iftikhar Ahmad at a press briefing in Islamabad.
He said Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto- Zardari had condemned the Indian court’s fallacious conviction of Mr. Malik and demanded his immediate release. The foreign minister also wrote letters to the clerk general of the OIC and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, clearing them about the dire mortal rights and the philanthropic situation in engaged Kashmir. In particular, Mr. Bhutto- Zardari expressed grave concern over the sham conviction of Mr. Malik.
“ India must harbor no visions. Pakistan will continue to raise its voice to express its enterprises and punctuate the gross surpluses that India continues to commit with unbounded immunity against the Kashmiri people and their political leadership in the IIOJK( Indian Illegally Enthralled Jammu and Kashmir). The entire nation is united in support and solidarity with the Kashmiris as also manifested by the amicable judgments passed by the congress, ” the FO added.
