Tributes Paid to Chotta Bazaar Martyrs on Anniversary


Srinagar, The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) paid tributes to the martyrs of Chotta Bazaar, Srinagar, on the occasion of their martyrdom anniversary.



According to Kashmir Media Service, the APHC spokesman, Advocate Abdul Rashid Minhas, demanded an impartial investigation into all massacres carried out by Indian troops in the territory to punish the perpetrators. The demand was made on the completion of 33 years since the Chotta Bazaar massacre. In 1991, Indian paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) troops opened fire after an alleged clash with unknown attackers at Zainakadal in Srinagar city, killing at least 32 people and injuring 22 others.



The APHC spokesman reaffirmed the Kashmiris’ resolve to continue their mission until it reaches its logical conclusion and urged India to respect United Nations resolutions on Kashmir.
