Islamabad 12 Dec 2011: Chairman Jammu and Kashmir People's Freedom League Muhammad Farooq Rehmani has asked the UN Human Rights Commission as to when the time to dispatch an on the spot enquiry Commission to Kashmir will come. He was giving his reaction on a press-briefing of the UN HR Chief Navi Pillay, who had said that there were no calls for enquiry into the human rights situation in Kashmir by a full-fledged commission, and it was made clear by her that such an investigation was subject to India's consent. She also said, "My office focuses on Kashmir and the violations there. We have had number of exchanges of correspondence---We are watching and monitoring that situation."
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani said, "Is Kashmir just for watching a bleeding and humiliating episode? The UN has been monitoring for the past 64 years, sitting idle and behaving sluggishly. If UN waits for India's yes', did it wait for a reply from the slain Qadaffi or from Basharat Assad to order full-fledged enquiry into their actions before? Will the UN Commission choose the position of a permanent and sleeping-spectator in the matter of Kashmir, till the last Kashmiri is killed or forcibly disappeared, or made infirm physically and mentally?
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani said that if the UN Rights Commission was awaiting a call from Kashmir were not thousands of unknown graves confirmed by the SHRC sufficient or did not the inhuman laws like AFSPA and DAA in vogue in the state enough to warrant intervention of the enquiry Commission? He concluded with these remarks, "Enough is enough. The future of the UN depends upon its approach towards cry and sufferings of enslaved and oppressed nations and peoples of the world. It must stand by the side of the helpless populations or face doom."
