SRINAGAR: (Jun 25) Mirwaiz Umar Farooq Wednesday called for punishing all those involved in public humiliation of a suspected thief in Jammu, who was allegedly made to sit on a moving police vehicle’s bonnet with a garland of shoes around his neck.
“Is this how Kashmiri’s will be treated in their own land? Stripped of human dignity! Paraded and shamed! Actually it’s a shame on the system and mindset that actively participates to humiliate people on the basis of religion and region,” the Mirwaiz said in a post on X.
He said the incident was not the first one,“ referring to the 2017 human shield row when Army Major Leetul Gogoi tied a man to a jeep allegedly as a shield against a mob which was hurling stones during a bypoll at Budgam. PTI
