The Kashmir Resistance Movement: Testimony of Indian Atrocities

A collection of reports in the World Press about the massive violations of human rights that are being committed by Indian forces in Kashmir, including frequent acts of rape, arson, loot, and maiming, especially of the young.

Topics: Children burned alive, serious injuries, rendered disabled, houses looted, shops burnt, prison without trial, youth in torture cells, underground fleeing, refugees in Azad Kashmir, schools and hospitals bombed, killed and drowned in the River Jhelum, tortured to death, cattle burnt alive, deforestation, property and crops damage, burning mosques, curfews, banned relief/medical aid efforts, expulsion of jornalists and human rights activists, rape, government employees expelled.
