Pakistan Summons Indian Envoy Over Framing Yasin Malik

Pakistan Government summoned New Delhi’s Envoy in Islamabad and condemned the framing of “fabricated charges” against Kashmiri Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik, who is currently imprisoned in Delhi’s Tihar jail.

Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that it handed over a demarche to the Indian diplomat. They further added that, “The Indian diplomat was conveyed Pakistan’s grave concern that in a bid to suppress the voice of the indigenous Kashmiri leadership, the Indian government has resorted to implicating them in fictitious and motivated cases,” news agency PTI reported quoting the statement.

Pakistan Government on Wednesday expressed deep concern over Malik’s imprisonment since 2019 under ”Inhuman Conditions.” Pakistan calls upon the Government of India for acquittal of Malik from all “baseless” charges and immediate release him from prison so that he can be reunited with his family, recuperate his health and return to normal life, the Foreign Office said.

Malik recently pleaded guilty to all the charges, including those under the stringent Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), before a Delhi court in a case related to alleged terrorism and secessionist activities that disturbed the Kashmir Valley in 2017.
The argument on sentence would take place on the next date of hearing, on 25th May.
