SRINAGAR: Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) has appealed people to hold a candlelight vigil and torch processions tomorrow after Maghrib (evening) prayers against the “ongoing killing spree in Kashmir.”

JRL comprising Syed Ali Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and incarcerated Muhammad Yasin Malik Saturday strongly condemns the “barbarism let loose against the people of Kashmir by government forces.”

In a statement today, the leadership strongly condemned the killing of a youth in Budgam and a girl in Kulgam.

“It clearly reflects that New Delhi believes in a policy of military might to suppress Kashmiris and their aspirations,” they said, in the statement.

They said that the world community has to break its silence in the face of such oppression and urge the government of India to stop these unabated killing and put a halt to its military approach.
