Watch: Kashmiris protest over human rights violation by Pakistan
Anti-Pakistan protests erupted as Kashmiris complained of human rights violations by Islamabad on the people living along the Line of Control (LoC) in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK). Pakistan police and paramilitary forces brutally assaulted leaders and activists of the Peace Committee, a coalition of progressive and nationalist organisations in PoK. The Peace Committee was protesting against the activities of Jihadi groups in the area and when they refused to stop their sloganeering and March, they were thrashed by the security personnel. Several people participating were severely injured after they were baton charged and hit by tear gas shells. The police and the paramilitary personnel also stopped the demonstrators from approaching the Line of Control (LoC).
