Hizb rejects police charge on Sopore killingsClose to identifying killers, but acting cautiously: Salahuddin

TARIQ NAQASH

Muzaffarabad, June 17: Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) supreme commander Syed Sala-huddin on Wednesday rejected allegations that his group was behind recent killings in Jammu and Kashmir, and instead termed these incidents a “handiwork of Indian intelli-gence agencies.”

“We strongly condemn those killings. No mujahideen group can resort to such steps. In fact, it’s the handiwork of Indian agencies and their stooges,” he said at a press conference here.

After years of sharply reduced violence in Kashmir, the gunning down of four men in Sopore has fanned fears of a

new wave of bloodletting.Police have blamed a

breakaway faction of HM for

the killings.However, Salahuddin reject-

ed the contention of police.

“We don’t believe the police, because they work directly under the patronage of Indian intelligence agencies,” he said.

He recalled India’s Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar's statement that India will use terrorism to counter terrorism, and said the situation emerging out in Kashmir was the outcome of that ghastly policy.

He said though Sopore was a stronghold of HM, but the area did have a sizeable presence of renegades - a term for pro-India militants – “who were being used by the Indian army and agencies.”

“I do not rule out the pos-sibility of such people having entered in the folds of Hizbul Mujahideen or any other mujahideen group under a well thought out conspiracy to defame freedom struggle,” he said.

“But let me make it clear that whosoever is engaged in these killing is being backed by the

funding, training, weapons and blessings of Indian agencies,” he said.

“Even if Syed Salahuddin is found involved in such acts, he is not a freedom fighter but a terrorist, an Indian agent and an enemy of Kashmiri people,” he remarked.

Salahuddin claimed that they were close to identifying these people, “but we are acting cau-tiously and will not take any step in haste lest it might ben-efit the enemy.”

“I can give their names even now, but I don’t want to push them to the Indian camp … Allah willing, there is no justi-fication for these people to live on the soil of Kashmir, whether disguised as freedom fighters or renegades,” he said.

Salahuddin claimed that “freedom struggle had intensi-fied at all fronts, particularly the target oriented actions of freedom fighters, and resultant-ly frustration in New Delhi was

multiplying.”When asked about the recent

hard-hitting statements of Pakistan’s political and mili-tary leadership on Kashmir, he said they had brought healthy change at political and diplo-matic level.

“However, on the ground there is no concrete change. In fact Islamabad should extend open support to the struggle inside the Indian held territo-ry… Not just political and moral support, but we need their mili-tary support,” he said.

“Being an important party to Kashmir dispute, Pakistan is constitutionally bound to sup-port the struggle of Kashmiris.”

Replying a question about the alleged presence of Daish and Taliban in Kashmir, he said people of Kashmir were not familiar with such groups.

“This is just a propaganda to detract and defame indigenous and legitimate movement of Kashmiri people at interna-

tional level and equate it with the terrorism,” he said.

Condemning ‘atrocities’ on the Jammu based Muslims, the HM supremo made it clear that no solution or formula was acceptable if it did not take into account the interests of the Mus-lims of Jammu.

“Pakistan should raise voice against the organized massacre of Jammu based Muslims by the BJP backed fanatics,” he demanded.

Coming down upon Chief Minister Mufti Muhammad Sayeed, he said he could not stop it because his only concern was to complete six years in power.

“He is a subordinate part-ner… nothing more than a stooge of the BJP,” he said.

Salahuddin also expressed his gratitude to China for its ‘commendable stance’ on Kash-mir from the day one “in line with the UN resolutions and wishes of Kashmiri people.”

Failed cataract surgeries in JLNM Hospital1 patient loses eyesight, others face complications; victims appeal Health Minister to intervene

MUDASIR YAQOOB

Srinagar, June 17: In just two months, JLNM Hospital here has performed three failed eye surgeries, forcing patients to move outside state to save themselves from any further damage. One of the patients has lost eyesight after the surgery performed was alleg-edly unsuccessful.

Documents with Greater Kashmir reveal that patients who were advised by the medicos to undergo surgery for removal of cataract, suffered various complications after surgeries were allegedly unsuccessful.

Ghulam Nabi, one of the patients,

who were admitted under MRD number 0058082 in ophthalmology department were operated on December 22, 2014.

“The surgery was unsuccessful and the patient lost eye sight,” said his family members.

Similarly, two other patients had to go outside the state for treatment after their surgery was also unsuccessful.

“Ghulam Mehmood Baigh of Gulbagh Zakura was admit-ted in the hospital under MRD number 0074709. His eye was also operated upon by the same doctor on January 21 this year. The surgery was unsuccessful and patient’s eye was further damaged,” said Abrar Gul, Baigh’s son.

Baigh was rushed to outside state for immediate treatment as the condition of his eye further deteriorated after surgery.

“Doctors after examining the eye of the patient said that surgery has not been carried properly and his eye has been damaged. They advised us to

go for immediate surgery. After that, patient’s eyesight improved,” said Gul.

Another patient, Ghulam Hassan of Alamgari Bazar, admitted under MRD number 0063554 was operated on January 7 this year. “The surgery was unsuccessful and the patient was rushed to outside the state. After being operated there, his eyesight improved.

The medicos there said that in case of further delay, he could have

lost his eyesight,” said Javiad Ahmad, son of Hassan.

The aggrieved family members said that outside the state they met some other

patients whose eye surgeries were performed by the same

medico in JLNM Hospital. The fami-lies appealed Health Minister Lal Singh to intervene in the matter.

Medical Superintendent JLNM, Dr Nazir Ahmad, said he would look into the matter. “I have already come to know about one of the cases. I will collect details about all the three cases now and ascertain facts before further commenting on the matter,” he said. He assured that any negligence would be dealt strictly under law.

Fake job racket: BJP activist fleeces youth in KupwaraPolice register case

SHAHID RAFIQ

Kupwara, June 17: A fake job racket in which six unemployed youth of district Kupwara were duped of Rs 15 lakhs has been busted by police here.

Police have registered a case against a BJP activist, who contested unsuccess-fully in the last assembly elections from Kupwara con-stituency, for duping unem-ployed youth by promising them jobs in forest depart-ment in lieu of money.

“The accused had given fake appointment orders to the youth and even provided them fake identity cards and uniforms of forest guards,” said police officials.

“The unemployed youth were even made to patrol the forests in Jammu division to give them an impression of job in forest department as forest guards.”

The case came to light after a youth, resident of Bat-pora Hayhama in Kupwara district, went to chief conser-vator’s office Jammu to get his ‘pending salary’ released. The officials after seeing his order told him it was fake.

A police officer who is investigating the case told Greater Kashmir that six youth identified as Fir-dous Ahmad Khan S/O Mushtaq Ahmad, Zahoor Ahmad Khan S/O Amanul-

lah Khan, Manzoor Ahmad Khan S/O Wafadar Ahmad Khan, Mohamamd Saleem Khan S/O Amanullah Khan, Abdul Rashid Mir, Shabir Ahmad Khan S/O Wafadar Khan and Inayat Ali Khan S/O Liyakat Ali Khan, all residents of Batpora Hay-hama, in the age group of 24-32 years, approached police station Trehgam that they were cheated by one Abdul Rehman Lone S/O Abdul Ahad Lone resident of Manwan Awoora in Kup-wara who contested last year’s assembly elections on BJP ticket from Kupwara constituency.

“An investigation was taken up in the case after their complaint and subsequently a case vide FIR No. 37 under sections 420, 467 and 471 RPC was registered against BJP leader Abdul Rehman Lone,” said the police officer.

“We have called the said leader in police station and will interrogate him. It was found from the initial inves-tigation that the youth have paid some money to Abdul

Rehman by depositing it in his bank account. Prelimi-nary investigations revealed that job orders and identity cards of forest department were fake. Investigations are on. We are examining the records and verifying the documents and have sent the fake appointment orders to the forest department for further verification,” he added.

Complainants told the police that after the assem-bly elections, Abdul Rehman Lone, projecting himself an influential BJP leader, took from them Rs 2 to 3 lakh each for providing them jobs in forest department. “Seeing his security cover and escort vehicle we came under his influence and paid him around Rs 15 lakhs in cash and by some bank transac-tions. Last October he took us to a chief conservator’s office in Dogra Hall Jammu after 4 PM and handed over appoint-ment orders of forest guards which purportedly had seal and signatures of secretary forest department, and recom-mendations of forest minister.

One candidate Zahoor Ahmad Khan was ‘appointed’ under order No. 799, others vide order No. 321 and 322.

“We were taken to forest division Panjtarni and then further to Sidhra forests to perform our duties as forest guards in different forest com-partments and made to roam the forests for more than six months. Even we were asked to bring the character verifi-cations from concerned police stations and verifications of documents from the con-cerned revenue authorities which we did,” the youth said.

“Our documents were deposited in an office in Dogra Hall by Abdul Rehman and his two associates,” said Shabir Ahmad Khan, a complainant.

Among the cheated candi-dates, 4 are orphan and paid the money to Abdul Rehman Lone after selling their land and jewellery of their sisters and mothers.

When we insisted about our salaries despite performing regular duties and even get-ting clarification of our docu-ments, we were told by Abdul Rehman that there was finan-cial crunch and government was not in a position to pay salaries,” Shabir Khan added.

“Even Zahoor Ahmad Khan, one among us, was paid one month’s salary amounting to Rs 15200. On this, we went to conservator’s office inquir-ing that why our salaries are not being released. We were shocked to learn there that our appointment orders and iden-tity cards were fake,” they said.
