He deplored that even the religious rights of the Kashmiri Muslims had been snatched.

The Hurriyat leader said that the historic Jamia Masjid of Srinagar had been continuously locked for the last two and a half years where Friday prayers and other religious activities were not allowed. He added that the Chairman of Hurriyat forum, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, had been under illegal house arrest since August 5, 2019 while other Hurriyat leaders and activists had been lodged in jails of India and the territory for last several years.

Masroor Abbas demanded of the United Nations and international human rights bodies to take notice of rights abuses by Indian troops in the occupied territory.
