Pakistan: India to ‘further brutalise Kashmiris’ with additional troops in IIOJK, says Foreign Office

ISLAMABAD, 12 November 2021, (TON): Foreign Office said in a statement “Pakistan is deeply concerned over the recent deployment of additional 5,500 occupation troops in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).”

"Around 2,500 troops have arrived and they were deployed all over the valley.”

He added “more were on their way to the occupied territory.”

Around 5,000 extra paramilitaries in all were being deployed from this week, including from India's Border Security Force (BSF), according to a police officer speaking to media on condition of anonymity.

Indian occupation forces have unleashed unimaginable brutalities on the Kashmiris including inter-alia the use of pellet guns, extrajudicial killings in ‘fake encounters’, enforced disappearances, arbitrary detentions, torture and custodial deaths.

Pakistan has already shared with the international community a comprehensive Dossier documenting Indian state terrorism, widespread violations of human rights, war crimes and crimes against humanity in IIOJK.

The deployment of these additional troops in IIOJK – the world’s most militarised region with over 900,000 occupation forces already - will further brutalise the oppressed Kashmiri people, the communiqué added.
