The visiting members of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation’s (OIC) Human Rights Commission regretted denial of permission by India to assess the situation in Kashmir, saying they would continue to refresh their request, officials here said.
The OIC reaction came in response to a “demand” by Pakistan-administered Kashmir’s Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider that the commission visit Kashmir at the earliest to review the situation there, Dawn online reported.
“The only weapon being used by the struggling Kashmiris are stones, but in response they are being hit by bullets and pellets which have left hundreds dead and thousands wounded,” Haider said.
