Hurriyat Conference (M) on Wednesday expressed concern over the growing incidents of braid chopping in several parts of Kashmir valley, especially in South Kashmir.

According to the statement issued here, a spokesman of the party said that the elements behind these immoral and criminal activities should be exposed before public.

“Such inhuman and degraded acts are aimed to create an atmosphere of fear and insecurity among the women in Kashmir,” he said, adding that it is unfortunate that authorities who are ever ready to put youth raising voice for the just cause behind the bars have miserably failed to nab the culprits involved in braid chopping.

Condemning NIA notices to the students in Kashmir, the spokesman said NIA is being used against the innocent students for expressing their political aspirations and a deliberate attempt to draw affect on the educational carrier of these students.

He said such tactics can’t suppress the people of Kashmir to fight for their birth right.

The spokesman also condemned the re-arrest of Jamat-e-Islami leader Advocate Zahid Ali and termed it as ‘political vendetta’ by the authorities.
