GENEVA: The deputy convener of National Front, Altaf Hussain Wani, on Monday said India had failed miserably to implement the recommendations regarding the need to reform laws and policies to ensure accountability of state actors over violations of the right to life and the establishment of a commission of inquiry into extrajudicial killings in Held Kashmir.
“Whatever steps India has taken are lingering in legislative process”, Wani made these assertions while taking part in a discourse on the sidelines of UNHRC session.
He stated that impunity continued to prevail and remains a serious impediment in the process of accountability. “The result is that the vulnerable persons, including women, human rights defenders, marginalised groups and people of political dissent continue to remain at risk of violence and often resulting in death.”
In Occupied Kashmir, the APHC leader pointed out, that there was no stopping to fake encounters to earn promotions and rewards.
During first five months of this year (2016), he said, over 12 cases of extra-judicial killings had been reported by the local human rights groups.
