The International Committee for the Respect and Application of the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights (ICRAC) submitted a written statement to the United Nations to make the global organisation aware of the deteriorating human rights situation in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Gilgit Baltistan.
The International Committee for the Respect and Application of the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights (ICRAC) also called for urgent UN intervention in the occupied regions, highlighting Pakistan’s historical violations.
It asserts that PoK and Gilgit Baltistan are historically integral parts of the princely state of Jammu & Kashmir, established under the treaty of Amritsar in 1846. Pakistan’s violation of the standstill agreement and subsequent invasion through Operation Gulmarg in 1947 resulted in forced division and ongoing conflict.
Sajid Hussain, a political activist from PoK, who submitted this statement, also informed the UN about the present situation in these regions, where people’s resistance movements are ongoing.
