Srinagar, March 4: Terming the police attitude against the prisoners as extremely cruel, the Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) on Saturday said the divisional police officer Sherbagh, Islamabad, Sameer Altaf has crossed limits in this regard.
In a statement issued to press, a DFP spokesperson said the officer is treating the prisoners in a very inhuman manner and using uncivilised language against the detainees.
The spokesperson while warning the said police officer said those arrested during the uprising are political prisoners and to treat them like criminals is unacceptable. “We are closely monitoring the matter and are mulling to take legal action in this regard,” he said.
“We have committed ourselves to the freedom movement and to backtrack is a thing unknown to us. Such intimidations by police won’t break our resolve,” he added.
The spokesperson asked the police to “listen to the voice of your conscience and realise that you have to live and die in this society”.
He also expressed serious concern over the continuous arrest of party’s provincial president Jammu Moulana Abdul Qayoom, district president Pulwama Muhammad Amin, Mushtaq Ahmad (Ganderbal), Muhammad Aadil Wagay (Islamabad), Rouf Ahmad (Islamabad), and dozens of other party members and activists.
