UN legally bound to implement its resolutions on Kashmir: HCBA
 

HELD SRINAGAR: The Jammu and Kashmir High Court Bar Association on Monday welcomed the mediation offer of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for resolving the Kashmir dispute.

The bar association, however, said that the Kashmir issue had long been investigated and settled by the Security Council, and it had given its verdict in terms of its 28 resolutions for the demilitarization of Kashmir and for holding a plebiscite in the state under the auspices of the United Nation so as to enable the people to decide about their future in a free and impartial manner, and it was the said verdict which the people of Kashmir wanted to be implemented.

However, this was being resisted by India on immoral grounds which were untenable under the international law, Bashir Siddiq, the General-Secretary of HCBA, said in a statement. The United Nations was, therefore, legally and morally bound to get its resolutions implemented so as to save the people of Kashmir of the catastrophe of war which was hovering over their heads at present, he said.

The bar association also condemned the killing of the 22-year-old youth, Muhammad Muzaffar Pandit, of Check Kawoosa who was hit by pellets fired by the forces in his left eye and was rushed to a hospital where he underwent two surgeries but did **t survive, he said.
