POV: And you say Justice delayed is justice denied..
Kashmir where law and order hardly matters..
Justice for the forgotten! My brother was killed by police forces in 2010, and 14 years later, we are still fighting for justice. Why does the system only move for the rich? When a poor man dies, it's just another statistic—but when the rich suffer, it's an international issue! Help me share this injustice. Let the world know his story. "

I have been struggling for justice since

2010. My brother,

, was killed by the

police when he was returning home after

Friday prayers. He was innocent. Yet,

everyone remained silent, and I don't know

where Kashmir is heading. People seem

more focused on modernizing, adopting

Western culture, and falling into the trap of

drugs. This is the reality of Kashmir-

where the innocent are killed, and no one

is held accountable. The courts keep

passing hearings without justice.

I have knocked on every door-be it the National Human Rights Commission, State Human Rights Commission, or any other commission that promised to help us seek justice-but all in vain. Sometimes, we feel helpless, but I firmly believe in the judgment of Allah (SWT).

For me, "Azaadi is nothing but justice"
Peace will come in Kashmir, but when justice will be given to the victims of these families. For me it was not a fruitful journey, being without a brother like Umer is living a life without a soul. You know I came from a place called HEAVEN ON EARTH, but for me its that heaven where mothers mourn after giving birth, because they know what lies in the fate of their child either they will be killed, or they will be booked under UAPA.
The pain of seeing brother dying from a beating at the hands of the place was too much for me and for my parents as well. But I take a task and promise myself that I will fight for justice for my brother Umer. I believe that the first step towards getting justice for my brother is to get FIR and we got that. I am hopeful that our hard work will bear fruit and the police person who is involved in this case will get punished. It’s not easy, I got many threats and I face a lot of harassment, but nothing can stop me. I have remained patient for 13years but a question for you is how much time it will take more. Despite the passage of time, we patiently waited for a resolution to his case, hoping that justice would be served. The enduring silence surrounding the proceedings has left us speechless.
“In the silent echoes of injustice, the heartache of waiting spans years. Behind every tear is a story untold, and within every plea for justice resides the resilience of a spirit that refuses to surrender to the night. In the quiet battle for truth, we are bound by the ache of absence, but through our tears, we plant seeds of hope that one day, justice will rise like the sun, scattering the shadows that have clouded our hearts for far too long."

Umer Qayoom Bhat, 16 was one among the 127 people killed during summer agitation in Kashmir. It was on Friday, August 20, 2010, after prayers, the protest was going on in the area and that while Umar was returning home after prayers, forces caught hold on him and he was beaten up mercilessly and they later dragged him to the nearby police post. Before taking Umer to the
Police station, he was beaten on the spot, he was thumped, dragged, and pushed to the shop shutter, stamped upon by a few policemen and then thrown into Gypsy. When my father Abdul qayoom visited the Police station, he saw Umer from a distance lying on a floor in a pathetic condition and constantly asking his father to take me to the Hospital as he was not able to stand up because of torture done by police. He was fasting on the day when he was taken into custody because it was the month of Ramadhan. They didn’t release him, and they didn’t even take him to the hospital because he was oozing blood from his mouth. Because of severe torture and electric shocks he breathe his last. We registered this case in every corner, but still justice is denied..
