ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) for Human Rights Mushaal Hussein Mullick paid rich tribute to Kashmiri freedom fighter Maqbool Butt Shaheed on the eve of his 40th martyrdom anniversary.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking at a function organized at Koshar School at refugees camp Mankpiyan\u00a0 the SAPM said that Butt was an icon of resistance movement who sacrificed his life for the noble cause of freedom of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).<\/p>\n

\u201cHe (Maqbool Butt Shaheed) was a man of integrity and honesty who devoted his entire life for the collective cause, went through trials and tribulations and ultimately sacrificed his life in pursuit of long-cherished ideals, she added.<\/p>\n

Mushaal recalled that the legendary Kashmir liberation leader Maqbool Butt Shaheed had been sent to the gallows in New Delhi\u2019s infamous Tihar jail on February 11 in 1984 for his role in Kashmir freedom movement.<\/p>\n

Mushall said the people of Kashmir were neither given the right to live nor to die. They even did not have the right to bury their loved ones.<\/p>\n

The SAPM said that her husband Yasin Malik is being subjected to brutal and inhuman treatment as he was denied all legal, constitutional and fundamental rights.<\/p>\n

She feared that the Indian government was hell-bent to hang Yasin Malik as he had been implicated in frivolous and politically-motivated cases to silence his voice.<\/p>\n

The SAPM called upon the world community and UN bodies to force India to ensure his release and let Kashmiris decide their fate as per their aspirations.<\/p>\n

She said that the Kashmiri people would leave no stone unturned and continue their struggle till last drop of their blood to break the yoke of Indian slavery.<\/p>\n
