MIRPUR ( AJK) -- Chairman Kashmir Council Europe (KC-EU) Ali Raza Syed has expressed solidarity with Chairman Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) Yasin Malik who is on an hunger strike in the India's notorious Tihar jail.

Yasin Malik was sentenced to life imprisonment by an Indian court on May 25 this year on the fake charges against him.

In a statement issued on Sunday Ali Raza Syed said that Yasin Malik who is deprived of all legal, constitutional and fundamental rights and even denied of the fair judicial trial by the Indian government, is currently battling for life in the Indian prison, says a message released to the media here Sunday evening.

Yasin Malik started his hunger strike on Friday morning against the denial of justice and fair trial to him by the Indian kangaroo courts.

As per a JKLF statement, Yasin Malik had written to the Indian government for a physical appearance before the court in order to response to the false cases registered against him. He also requested for cross examination of witnesses himself and said that he would sit on hunger strike if his request was not accepted by the Indian government.

Chair of KC-EU Ali Raza Syed urged the International community including United Nations and international human rights organizations to pressurize India to accept legal demands of Yasin Malik sitting on the hunger strike.

Ali Raza Syed asked the international community including European Authorities to use their good office to pressurize India for early and unconditioned release of Yasin Maliik.

Chair of KC-RU also called for unconditional release of rights activists including Khurram Parvez and Mohammad Ahsan Unto, Kashmiri Journalists and as well as the Kashmiri political activists detained in the Indian prison.
