| Release all political prisoners, youth: PDP | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Srinagar, Aug 5: Demanding immediate release of all political detunes and hundreds of young people, who have been rounded by recently, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) today welcomed the move to seek intervention of Sayeed Ali Shah Geelani in restoring peace and solve the present crisis.
In a statement issued here today, president of PDP Mehbooba Mufti said that by propagating the policy of using force and adopting coercion methods, the State Government has imprisoned a large number of political leaders and young boys only to cover up its own failure. She said that it is time that the political influence of other leaders like Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who has been under house arrest, Mohammad Yasin Malik, Shabir Ahmed Shah, Nayam Khan, Zafar Ahmed Mir be given free space to make their contribution in making peace.
Similarly, a large number of youth who have been arrested on flimsy ground and framed in criminal cases should be immediately be set free to create atmosphere conducive for further political process.
Meanwhile, Mehbooba was hopeful that with the release of various leaders and advice of Sayeed Ali Shah Geelani for peace would be utilised as an opportunity for the large and bolder initiatives. She said that PDP has been stressing on the involvement of all political parties and leaders to find the solution of the problems of State and has been constantly cautioning against compartulisation of political parties. She said that all citizens and political parties of the State have to contribute the exercise and there should be no discrimination or division among them.
She said that PDP patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed had advised even after last assembly elections, in which more than 60 percent of people had voted, this turnout should not misread as disappearance of Kashmir problem. She, however, said that it was unfortunate that advise was not heed in time which led to killing of large number of people and economic loss also.
