Soz urges LG to allow families to exhume bodies off kin killed in fake encounter

SRINAGAR: FormerGoI Minister Prof. Saifuddin Soz in a letter on Saturday urged Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha to concede the demand of the three bereaved families of Rajouri for exhuming the bodies of the three slain labourers namely Ibrar Ahmad, Imtiyaz Ahmad and Ibrar Ahmad, who were killed by the Army at Amshipora Shopian
The statement added that the Army has itself said that there was a prima facie case of the provisions of AFSPA having been exceeded. That way, the Army has accepted that it is a case of mistaken identity and the provisions of AFSPA have been violated.After the Army’s stand on this issue, the bodies should be exhumed and handed over to the families concerned for the burial as per the religious rites.
Soz hoped that LG would accede to the demand of the concerned families and pass the necessary instructions, forthwith, also granting full compensation to the families concerned, expeditiously.
