Taking to Twitter, Imran Khan claimed that Yasin Malik was being illegally convicted on fake terror charges. He asserted that the international community must take note and act against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindutva fascist regime’s terrorism in IIOJK. Notably, incumbent Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif also shared a similar opinion regarding Yasin Malik and slammed the Indian government over the separatist leader’s conviction.
Another Pakistani Minister Khawaja Salman Rafique has put Yasin Malik’s picture on his official Twitter profile and condemned the sentencing of the Kashmiri leader. He tweeted, “Indian judiciary is going to punish Hurriyat leader Yasin Malik by upholding all the principles of justice, which has exposed the face of the Indian fascist government and justice system. The United Nations has declared in its charter that the struggle for legitimate freedom is the right of every human being. We stand with Yasin Malik”.
