@Syed Jalal Kashmiri: These are Indian agents attacking Pakistan police. How shameful for India’s proxy wars against our friend, Pakistan. Kashmiris reject these miscreants.
Kashmir is part of India, your name has just the value of a piece of paper, a certificate.That doesn't stop Pak occupied Kashmir from starting overtures to and later assimilating with India, if by coercion, even let it be.Those who want to stay can stay., those who want to leave can leave.Its your call.
Even Indian Muslims have problems but not on this scale not certainly not on daily basis. I pray that Allah makes Muslims in Pakistan more tolerant.
@Amjad Ali: If it is truly 'Azad' Kashmir, then canit be called a part of Pakistan? If it is part of Pakistan, can it truly be Azaad?
We are losing control all over Pakistan except for Punjab.
They are freedom fighters & not terrorist!
In the intro you say two "unidentified" armed men .... and the in very next paragraph mention the assailants' names as well.
Pakistani Occupied Kashmiris want to join with the motherland and enjoy the same benefits that all Indian enjoy.A shariah free progressive life.
