India police jail 21 Kashmiris amid pro-Palestinian rallies​

By AIJAZ HUSSAINMay 15, 2021

SRINAGAR, India (AP) — Police in Indian-controlled Kashmir said Saturday that 21 people were arrested for disturbing public order by expressing solidarity with Palestinians and holding protests against Israel’s military offensive in Gaza.

Police said in a statement they were keeping a “close watch on elements who are attempting to leverage the unfortunate situation in Palestine to disturb public peace and order” in Kashmir. The statement said police were “sensitive to public anguish” but wouldn’t allow those sentiments to “trigger violence, lawlessness and disorder.”

The Muslim-majority Himalayan region of Kashmir is divided between India and Pakistan and claimed by both in its entirety. Kashmiris have long shown strong solidarity with Palestinians and have often staged anti-Israel protests when fighting broke out in Gaza.

Police inspector-general Vijay Kumar told reporters that 20 people were arrested in Srinagar, the region’s main city, and one from a village in southern Kashmir.

A police officer, speaking anonymously in line with department policy, said the 21 were arrested for social media posts, taking part in anti-Israel protests and making graffiti in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and Jerusalem.

Some of the arrested could be soon released after “counseling and assurances from their parents that they would desist from such acts in future,” the officer said.

The officer said the arrested include Sarjan Barkati, a Muslim cleric and a prominent anti-India activist, as well as an artist. The artist was arrested for painting pro-Palestinian graffiti on a bridge in Srinagar on Friday showing a woman wearing a scarf made of a Palestinian flag and a tear tricking from her eye, with the words: “WE ARE PALESTINE.” The graffiti was later painted over by police.

Since Monday, Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip with airstrikes and Palestinian militants have fired hundreds of rockets into Israel. The latest round of fighting between the bitter enemies has already begun to resemble — and even exceed — a devastating 50-day war in 2014.

During that war, large anti-Israel protests erupted in Kashmir, which often morphed into clashes with demands of an end of India’s rule over the region and causing dozens of casualties.

Relations between Hindu-majority India and Israel have long been viewed with suspicion and hostility in Kashmir, and Israel has also emerged as a key arms supplier to India.

The police has already said no violence in the form of protests.
There were doing violence and hence were rightfully arrested.

you're the one who was crying na?
when @Jackdaws told about chinese crimes
We should be thanking @beijingwalker for pointing out the stark contrast between how protestors are handled in India and in China. Violent protesters in India are duly arrested and the law is followed. In China, peaceful protestors are shot or sent to concentration camps.

LOL, You mean your "special laws" in Kashmir, all the laws are the same everywhere in China. Kashmir is hell on earth and it super underdeveloped just like everywhere in India.

China is superdeveloped vro, so developed that they need viruses to stop other countries’ growth.
Yes. In the Communist world, "super developed" means developing super viruses and spreading a pandemic around the globe while their own minority citizens are either jailed in concentration camps or begging neighboring countries for refuge.

Lol, the super spreader of the virus is undisputably India, this virus is sweeping across India like a tidal wave or wild fire, in China it was quickly wiped out in a month, this is the difference between China and India.

The bot wants to interact on its credibility and "no u" baiting.

Went over swimmingly the last time:


No stereotypes confirmed there at all.

Everyone totally isn't laughing at it and its kind.

That might what signboards on Chinese border villages say to prevent more Chinese refugees from pouring into India.
