ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistan has expressed concerns about the recurring acts of confiscation of properties of Kashmiri activists and human rights defenders in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
In her weekly media briefing in Islamabad on Thursday, the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said that India’s National Investigation Agency and the State Investigation Agency (SIA) have moved aggressively to seize immovable properties of several Kashmiri activists.
It is concerning that just SIA has attached 124 such properties since its establishment in 2021, she said.
The Spokesperson said that we condemn India’s recent move to confiscate the property of All Parties Hurriyat Conference Spokesperson and Tehreek-e-Hurriyat leader Ayaz Akbar in Srinagar.
Ayaz Akbar remains behind the bars since 2017 on fictitious charges.
The Spokesperson said that India must end dispossessing the political leaders and human rights defenders of their rightful properties.
“Kashmiris are the rightful heirs to their own land,” she remarked.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said that it is unfortunate that non-Kashmiris are being encouraged to buy land and property in the disputed territory while the properties of Kashmiris are being confiscated and destroyed.
