Islamabad: Shaukat Nawaz Mir, a top leader of the Awami Action Committee in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), has accused Pakistan’s government and army of oppressing locals. Comparing them to a witch bent on killing people, he asserted that the so-called “Azad Kashmir” is not free at all.

Mir recalled General Asim Munir’s remarks labelling Hindus as “kaafir” prior to the Pahalgam attack and charged that while Pakistan accuses others of committing atrocities, its own leaders are perpetrating them in PoK. He further alleged that the voices of ordinary people are being crushed, the media is being silenced, and questioned the legitimacy of Pakistani forces that “kill those they claim to represent.”

The situation in PoK is set to worsen as the Pakistan Army continues its alleged atrocities and protesters remain undeterred. In response to ongoing demonstrations by Pakistan’s Jammu and Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JKJAAC), the PoK administration has imposed an indefinite lockdown.

The JKJAAC has declared its intention to internationalize the issue, calling on Kashmiris worldwide to raise awareness. The organisation has consistently highlighted major concerns, including the brutal force used against the local population, and has urged people to lay siege to Muzaffarabad.

A 38-point charter of demands has been submitted to the Pakistan government, which includes the removal of perks and privileges for the elites. While protests have intensified over the past week, the situation escalated further when security forces reportedly opened fire on peaceful demonstrators.

Allegations have emerged of a systematic attempt by the Pakistan government to suppress the protests violently, with claims of a planned crackdown to kill dissenters. Since the onset of the protests, Pakistan has suspended mobile and internet services in PoK to prevent the real issues from reaching the global community.

There is currently an unprecedented deployment of security personnel throughout the region as authorities seek to maintain control amid rising unrest.

The situation in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir is set to worsen as the Pakistan Army continues its alleged atrocities, and the protesters show no signs of relenting. The PoK administration has ordered an indefinite lockdown amidst protests organized by Pakistan’s Jammu and Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JKJAAC).

The JKJAAC has decided to take the issue to the international stage, calling upon Kashmiris globally to raise awareness. The organization has been highlighting major issues, including the use of brute force against civilians, and has called on people to lay siege to Muzaffarabad.

A 38-point charter of demands has been submitted to the Pakistan government, which includes the removal of perks for the elites. While protests have intensified over the past week, the situation escalated further when security forces reportedly began firing at peaceful protesters.

Allegations have surfaced of a systematic attempt to kill people, with claims that the Pakistan government has set a plan in motion to suppress the dissent. Since the protests began, Pakistan has suspended mobile and internet services across PoK, aiming to prevent the real issues from reaching the international community.

There is currently an unprecedented deployment of security personnel in the region as authorities attempt to contain the unrest.
