as long as. managers can a good day nothing would change you know the banks pay huge fines and so watch the language of the bankers running. speaking the truth global news that matters g.w. made for mines. her and her her i was there i. the news travels fast. local residents have come to see the funeral procession for a young man killed in a counterterrorism strike by the indian army i. thought we have a new martyr his name was donnish he was 18 when he joined the militants. he was

a student for a mission with those of us is our version he said he was my neighbor has done a look at all the people who have come to his funeral was going down ish died on the path of allah because of emotions are running high. for the same goes for the movement into our yard and just that's why the children are here to look at the wages of the french i think that i did was much for the one receiving their prayers today had spent his last 2 months as a resistance fighter with an armed islam ist separatist group alleged to have close ties to pakistan i. heard that similar mischaracterized. her 1900 that were that i was. was he was one of not even 300 fighters facing the 500000 strong

armed indian forces the insurgency in general and kashmir began in the late 1980 s. but the conflict over this territory goes back much further. kashmir is located in the himalayan mountains and is now considered one of the world's most heavily militarized regions in 1947 the partition of british india into separate countries india and pakistan brought an end to nearly 200 years of colonial rule. and left behind the disputed principality of kashmir both newly independent nations laid claim to the territory and fought out war after war overnight a demarcation mark was established separating the mostly muslim population over the following years kashmiri separatist groups continuously carried out numerous attacks against indian troops including suicide attacks. somebody wipe it out but i'm going to make up i'm only what i think you have got why i think you know i did

not give you know if you have got to fight poverty or fighting to. improve one in southern kashmir residents remember february 14th 2019 as if it were yesterday that day a suicide bomber drove a car packed with explosives into a bus carrying indian troops 40 soldiers died. india blamed pakistan pakistan denied responsibility war was imminent. the assailant lived in this small quiet village we went to visit his father who makes his living here as a vegetable farmer like to. sell my son's name was a deal. he left us one spring day in 20 minutes. he took off on his bike so we thought he was just going for a ride and he was gone for about

a month and then he turned up and some photographs. that's when we realised that he joined the militants. and we could already imagine what was going to happen to him. when i think about it now i still get upset about. what drove him to do that. but i think it all started after he attended a political rally. the army arrested him and pushed his head into his own spit. out reached him and that anger stayed with him. he felt humiliated that they would do that to him in front of so many people there was and then that's their got out there like afterwards he asked again and again why would they humiliate us like that was a guy. all parents had dreams for their children you know we tried to raise them right and hope that they'll be successful why did that what happened to him breaks my heart but i think i would have done the same if that happened to me the wrong

going to die here anyway we're going to do a lot of good. after india elected a hindu nationalist government in 2014 it crack down hard on kashmiri separatists. this video was shot in a village in northern kashmir just after a militant was reported to be in the area 1000 soldiers were sent him. local residents were ordered to stay indoors. the shooting continued for several hours then the troops blew up a house where the alleged activist was believed to be hiding i'd in retaliation angry young kashmiris threw stones at the soldiers who responded with gunfire and tear gas. i have.

no idea why but it. all. ended up us to myself what i. thought about that day was a moment when i was off i didn't really i was couldn't get up. i let's get going i mean on the most good. night i think that. afterwards in the wake of the attack and the local young men valid revenge. i'd shock waves from the explosion destroyed several other nearby homes in the village some lost all they had. was a message and get through without the study was yet. to show any evidence of the

office. hardly anyone dares speak to us on camera they fear what might happen if they do. but one woman does speak up make good on the economic i'm not afraid to talk to they think that we can smear is a criminals but such as i said to him. go ahead keep harassing us and destroying our prophecy and soon we'll take up arms and defend ourselves soon the women will fight to independence is near god willing inshallah we're ready to make any sacrifice to win our freedom oh my god i think they can i get somebody i. i if anything india's anti terrorism campaign in kashmir has made a lot of enemies. and yet despite the 10s of thousands killed or wounded and the countless destroyed or abandoned homes and villages one word cannot

be suppressed. freedom it rings out over the ruins in the hearts of the separatists and in sermons of some of the local religious leaders. during. mohammed omar farouk is considered the muslim spiritual leader of kashmir the new wives he enjoys great respect. for students father's side oh god. god. god yes i. shall go on the social media over there of it's important. because indian media doesn't really go to it so we have used social media the internet radio he has 200000 followers online for root has led kashmir's muslim community since his father was assassinated his grandfather is in jail. we don't

support that the fact that bush we boys should become you know suicide bomb because we don't want to when you want to get killed you know by like this in fact we want them to live but we feel that you know these acts of desperation you know what is leading these young boys towards militancy this is the big question you know if you look at the stories if you follow their stories you know they haven't had a spy the police by the security agencies you know i mean their families have been had as their parents their brothers the fact is that today there is anger against the state there is anger against indian policies of oppression and oppression they want to raise posters banners that is banned you can't you are put in jail for that you know the police is after you the agencies that are for you they feel that nothing is working it's better to get killed and kill somebody on the route is under tight surveillance more than once he's been placed under house arrest. you can kill me and then what go on open the door. you want to arrest me right.

then go ahead and do it. today farouk can travel to the mosque in srinagar for friday prayers just 2 weeks back the police had let him go. i cannot be quiet on what's happening in kashmir specially the human rights violations the killings so probably the government if it doesn't like to you know i'm speaking to people because they want to addition be minimal engagement between the leadership and the people. that is the target they don't want people to assembled there and whenever they feel there is anger among the people to lock down the mosque i mean last year in 2018 the mosque was locked down from for 16 weeks so that is also angering people you know that that that you know abuse anger that you know our i would just police are being are being closed down. and it will move us ylem

obviously hundreds of people have gathered at the mosque today not only to pray but to hear for rukhsana on the situation in kashmir. or are the. i don't know. for years that the authorities have been banning religious organizations. the overt and silencing students and moms and politicians say are you are you are your own or rather see i'm president they want to show the people of india that they rule kashmir with an iron fist. but we you know what the reality is. because of this oppression our young people are sacrificing themselves as human bombs. and i'm.

not going to solicit they tried to frighten us and intimidate us but they didn't succeed. they don't understand that this is not a struggle of one individual or one political party but the struggle of an entire people who are ready to sacrifice their lives. and i added have i would have died i was riled by faruq sentiment and frustrated by the thai curfew in srinagar some tried to provoke a confrontation with the polling so. i was 5

but officers didn't respond. i was. that was but this is what can happen when the police do crack down. through. was. i was. i are hard often takes part in these protests when the friday sermons get out of hand he's a medical student he says he's been arrested and mistreated several times for throwing stones at police. behind is willing to talk to us but only if we agree to protect his identity. we're fighters guarding the arctic i'm covering my face because of the police find

out i've been talking to foreign reporters about kashmir his and get into trouble because he moved over into a danger or question that there's so much repression now operate and i was alone here you have your murder but your book idea just to. then it. was fun many in kashmir expressing their opinion is dangerous even behind a mask and thick walls. as we move to a different location away from any curious listeners. it is only here now many got to pass and i still reject the use of armed force just because i believe in a peaceful solution to this conflict it was 30 peaceful for just me but i don't believe that the authorities are interested in peace and we want to stable future so that we can build a life for ourselves continue our studies or start a career for an action that i'd live on on a continuous cotton but with all the curfews have on every week every month. that's impossible that's one of the shutdown this is sort of if you do decide to take up

arms would it be to defend islam or to fight for kashmiri independence. we want to defend islam that's one of the good of our religion teaches us that we should protect our brothers from cruelty to suddenly in light of such injustice it calls for jihad but we also demand the dependence on their coats just remarkable. as the ideology becomes more radical in homes and universities on the streets the indian authorities are taking steps to counteract. the problem is particularly serious in southern kashmir. so the police and that region have put together a team of muslim attorneys and psychologists who are experts on radicalization. today one of the psychologists is going to talk to some young protesters who were

recently arrested. so do as we do you are at the demonstrations did you throw stones. and i just wondered yes and the cops arrested us. did you enjoy throwing stones from the i did the same job did you know that the word jihad really means to overcome your selfish desires. have you ever heard it put that way . the quintuple want to know whether you try that because i'm careful you're not interested in that is killing people you care about. it actually that's right. what if india lets us go do you know how many other countries we're surrounded by. sure bangladesh sri lanka pakistan and he's going to look after her what if one of those countries annex as us should we fight them no they wouldn't do that why not.

because we'll be independent controlling our own country and they can't do anything about that. once and still these youth on the brink of militarism want to be heard. police also meet with the parents of young people. tough luck on a district police chief in south kashmir has organized a community outreach program today he's talking to a group of fathers worried about their children's arrest due to her i don't know whether provides has ties to the radicals but we arrested him. more names already are going to show us some of which will stay in jail any other names. you have is far short of just you know him to. the same

sure soften so i'll tell you straight out live you from the problem mohammed said parents of the shepherds of their children you have to teach them right from wrong until they're adults. with them should be going to be much going to go. to a symbol as well but if i ask the meirs father what his son did during the day. and whether he sits down with his parents and talks to the court. you can hear the father said no. so how can a father look after a son if he doesn't talk to him it's got some good communicators on the way it's going to stop us 3 young people have ties to the militants. they won't be released we're still questioning our budget. we haven't. got the ship was injured by police in srinagar but we've taken him to a doctor and he's fine now. if you think about it but since i'm not really certain we had a guy we let go he'd only been in jail for 3 months. and what did he do because

he's behind bars again. it happens all the time if we could have talked to him we would have set him straight if you should go to. the indian authorities allowed us to film this meeting because they want to show that the police are taking a new approach to this situation. in the past local residents and human rights organizations perhaps sharply criticized police brutality including beatings extrajudicial executions forced disappearances. a special powers act of 1990 gives the security forces wide ranging authority to deal with the kashmir insurgency. critics say that these powers include immunity from prosecution lawsuits against the security forces almost always fail

parvenus son was arrested more than 30 years ago and she hasn't heard from him since now she campaigns on behalf of other children who have disappeared. my heart just sinks when i look at this photo. you can see his injuries never forgot as i was really good and if they've arrested him where are they holding him the authority is all in this together. and i did why don't they tell us we don't want money we just want to know where our children are playing a player like you might go to there's been so many human rights violations including rapes beatings and murders and. children have been crippled for life and their parents have to take care of them. i'm sick and i will this is what young people have to go through thank you and that's why they're filled with hate they've grown up with this hate.

now i'll meet you at the pocket take one on the top market. on the 10th of every month parvana joins with others to remember the 8000 people who've been disappeared in kashmir since 1989. such as that how are you russian john i hope you're well. down there going to when you can go do does one. tell i think there are women here who've lost sons or husbands and children who've lost fathers they've all experienced the painful loss of loved ones. but if you like your mother why if there's anything i can do for you let me know how much. you're a good boy. that

i think. if he's still alive how come back god willing every day i think that he's still alive if he is i. hope that god will protect and guide him if not i pray that have be forgiven. go on here and there who are felt at all since in 997. if i'd won it would have given hope to others but nothing has happened for 3 decades if you will search his twisted statements and invent their own version of what i'm told. so they gather here every month to call attention to their missing family members the authorities allow this protest but little more.

sun kashmiris now believe that things here are changing. one of them is why the power a leader of the youth wing of the people's democratic party or. the p.d.p. believes that the best way to resolve the kashmir conflict is through dialogue and reconciliation. right now he's on his way to meet with a group of young people i feel that i do i think 60 percent of kashmir is population is under 30 and what you'd hope that they will vote for his party. line scheme by no matter we've announced a number of proposals aimed at helping young people but what is everyone talking about the the side out there or the latest suicide bombing and how it's brought india and pakistan to the brink of an atomic war going to war without what occurs.

while he tries to win people over through a persuasive debate rather than violence but the political situation in kashmir is enormously complex so he has to proceed with caution. i think you know a lot of people. aspire for freedom given the history of the conflict but people like us who are into the mainstream to most of the process we see solutions within the song and the role should be more democratic space to the kashmiris and our identity should be like the should be subbed nationalism aakash me that still need a good night's a touch of the acknowledge and that's not to diminish we don't want to simulation but we want to be good we're ok with the intervention but not at the cost of assimilation of own identity. in the previous indian parliamentary elections the turnout in some parts of kashmir was dismal enough if kashmiris are serious about embracing democracy that will have to change.
