  • The 6,300 Mukhtarans of Kashmir

    http://www.pakistantimes.net/2005/07/08/oped1.htm

    The court martial of a Major of 30 Rashtriya Rifles, involved in the rape of a woman and her daughter in Kupwara district triggered street protests in Kashmir valley. To hoodwink the world, the Indian Army had to dismiss a jawan from service and award vigorous imprisonment of one year for raping a 60-years-old woman in IHK last year.

    In another case, Indian Army persons raped a woman namely Hakeem Jan in Sheikhpora (IHK). An FIR was lodged against Kishan Bahadur of 3 Rashtriya Rifles. Residents of Sallar village held protest demonstrations against the alleged rape of Hakeem Jan. On Nov 4, 2004 a nineteen year-old-girl lodged a complaint that she was gang raped by Indian Army persons in Anantnag but nobody paid any heed.
    According to the Kashmiri-Canadian Council, more than 6,300 Kashmiri women have been raped.
    And a report by Human Rights Watch 2001, say; “Rape is used by the Indian Security Forces to attack Kashmiri women suspected of sympathizing with Freedom Fighters.”

    Through rape, the Security Forces are aiming to punish and humiliate the entire community. The Amnesty International report 2004 maintained that specific targeting of Muslim women in India remains unacknowledged by the State government and criminal justice system.

    Witnesses report that a large number of women are beaten, stripped naked, gang raped and stabbed. Amnesty International remained disturbed as civilians in 2004 continued to be a target of gross human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir and scores of allegations of human rights violations were made against Security Forces, paramilitary forces.

    Extrajudicial killings, rapes, custodial killings, kidnappings, burning of houses by Indian Security Forces within IHK remain a common practice. The whole IHK has risen against the Indian Army and the Armed Forces Special Powers Act AFSPA that enables the Indian Army to arrest and kill anyone, anytime.

    Wrong.The Armed forces special powers act , the AFSPA doesnt not authorise anybody to kill anyone.

    The propaganda engine at its full speed.

    And a report by Human Rights Watch 2001, say; “Rape is used by the Indian Security Forces to attack Kashmiri women suspected of sympathizing with Freedom Fighters.”
    Yes.This is what they call Rape :
    • Presently quality education is being imparted to 5000 Kashmiri children in the Primary, Middle and Senior level schools being run/ adopted by the Army. The schools are running at Srinagar, Khanabal, Balapur, Aishmuqam, Awantipur, Ahagom, Uri, Charkut, Sharifabad and Kupwara. Computer education, science laboratories and well stocked libraries are available in all middle and senior level schools.

    • These schools are also providing employment as teachers to 250 Kashmiri citizens.

    • Jammu and Kashmir is the only state where education is free up to the University level

      O wowo!

      At least there is some justice in India.

      Remember the Major who raped the woman in Baluchisthan?

      I believe he is free and without justice being done, all becaue he has started reading the Koran.

      What utter crap of justice. Reading the Koran is a panacea to all evil.

      Heavens, I would like to go and do all evils as I read the Koran. I am saved (Note it as in one thread with a link)

      I might as well read pornogaphy!

        He's quoted recorded facts.

        His argument was different. He says the demonization of Pakistan in the media, is conveniently overlooking the real hotspot of rapes in South Asia. Pakistan no doubt needs to fix itself up. It's a whole constitutional issue of womens rights n all in Pakistan that lets them get away. In Kashmiri, its just a pathetic Kashmiri woman, who should be raped as that would hurt the "evil" separatists.

          Come on Asim, you have to be a looney Pakistani to believe in this garbage!

          As long as you guys are going to believe in these garbage propoganda and conspiracy theories, your Pakistani ummah is not going to progress.

          Propoganda and conspiracy theories play a very big role in keeping the muslim masses uninformed and thus uneducated.

          Your ummah leaders use these propoganda and conspiracy theories to cover their own failures and deflect criticism, this is true for pretty much all OIC countries with the exception of may be Turkey, Malayasia, and Indonesia.

          If you want to be an "enlightened moderate" then show some "enlightment" and post real/authentic news than Pakistani propoganda.

          You insult the intelligence of the people on this board when you make nonsensical posts like these.

              Reference to the repeated stories of sexual abuse in Pakistan.

                Rape stories excite you Ray?

                I would've doubted that, if you hadn't admitted it here yourself.

                  Exciting they are , Asim.
                  If a country does not arrest a rapist Army Captain and bans the victim from travelling abroad , then surely it is exciting.Only in Pakistan.

                      Who are they. If they want to be counted come in India & take up the matter in J&K courts or stop this type of BS crap.

                        useless piece of ****..thats what it is asim.

                        the author was smart enough to mix the views of amnesty with his own spicy bit such as "Through rape, the Security Forces are aiming to punish and humiliate the entire community".

                        Since you are trying to be a jounalist this is very wrong and wicked article that you shud discuss.But ultimatly it depends on what kind of jounalism you want to do...yellow or ...???
                        What's the difference between people who pray in church and those who pray in casinos?
                        The ones in the casinos are serious.

                          I think you are talking about Major Rehman case. He was arrested after the allegation but when the DNA test proved false then he was acquited of the charges.

                          Major Rehman was not the rapist, probably the terrorists were.

                          This happened about a year ago and so much commoation was made by the Hurri-Rats.

                          Point is such allegations are made at the rate of 1 to 2 per year.
                          If you add them all together for 15 years of war against terrorism is kashmir, it adds up to about 3 dozen or so.

                            What about the Millions of Bengali women who faced the Ultimate Humilation of Rape from the 86,000 Pakistani Soldiers in Bangladesh during the war of 1971?
