Wikileaks kashmir torture expose :

| Apr 4, 2011

The whistle blower site WikiLeaks revelations regarding the custodial torture of the detainees has created turmoil and led explosive reaction by the Indian ministry. As per the cable sent by the US diplomats in 2005 quote the Red Cross as saying that the Indian government condones torture of detainees in Kashmir.
The cable which is confidential briefing of a representative of the International Committee of the Red Cross revealed that nearly 1500 detainees over a period of three years were tortured badly that included sexual abuse, stretching and the use of water and electricity.
The Red Cross society which fights for Human Rights in countries all over the Globe after several longstanding dialogues with the Indian government has concluded that New Delhi condones torture.
However, in a sharp reaction to the revelations of WikiLeaks, J&K Chief Minister rubbishing the report said that neither the ministry has ever condoned torture nor it will in the future.
In response to the latest revelations, an official of ICRC in New Delhi said that the organisation is verifying the details about the WikiLeaks revelations and they are in touch with the higher authorities in Geneva.
He further added that they will come out with a response soon after completely verifying the details since the incidence pertained to the year 2005.
There was further unrest in Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir, earlier this year, when the death of a student hit by a tear-gas grenade sparked widespread street protests.
Well, let’s wait and see how the Indian government face this accusation.
