OIC condemns use of force by the Indian Police against Kashmiri people

The Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), Professor Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, expressed his deep concern and disappointment at the recent wave of violence against the people of Kashmir by the Indian Police who fired at hundreds of stone-throwing protesters in Kashmir on Tuesday the 6th of July 2010, killing and injuring many civilians.

OIC members includes Pakistan, which via its Army operations on Afghanistan border, has turned out to be biggest killer of Muslims in the world. Ironically, OIC has also has refused membership for India which has larger Muslim population than many OIC members. This has resulted in difficulties for Muslims in India that includes Kashmir’s.

While condemning the continued use of force against the kashmiri people in the Indian Kashmir, Professor Ihsanoglu appealed, once more, to the Indian authorities to avoid excessive use of force and respect the people’s will and rights in order to help improve the security situation in Kashmir.
