A videos have emerged showing Hizb-ul-Mujhahideen militants warning PDP workers in south Kashmir of dire consequences if government forces “don’t stop ransacking their houses and harassing our families.
“You tell Mehbooba (Mufti) to stop ransacking our houses and we will stop ransacking yours,” the militants are heard telling a PDP worker in Shopian after ransacking his house.
“The PDP is getting the homes of the militants ransacked to crush the freedom movement,” the worker says, guns pointed at his chest.
“Why do you harass our sisters? We can also harass your sister but we will not. We are sparing your life because of your daughter. Stop ransacking our homes or we will come again and shoot you dead,” the militants are heard telling the PDP worker.
In another video, Hizb commander Riyaz Naikoo is heard threatening a PDP worker at his house in Awantipora area of south Kashmir.
“This is your first and last warning. Tell your bosses who order the ransacking of our homes that Riyaz Naikoo was here. Tell them, we can also ransack your houses,” Naikoo is heard telling the PDP worker at gunpoint in the video.
He also warns workers of PDP, NC and BJP, as well as policemen, “from SPOs to SPs” that he will force them to “migrate” if the ransacking of militants’ houses continue.
“Your war is against us. We have picked up gun against gun. What have our families done? You have children. What have your children done?” Naikoo is heard saying.
“We are neither afraid of the Indian law nor the Indian power. Our hands are tied because of Islam. So if the ransacking happens again, we will make you migrate within seven days,” he says. (PTK)
