TEETWAL INCIDENT - 6.5.1991 about eighty-one persons whose names have not as yet been disclosed by the armed forces were killed by the forces. The Government on the electronic media announced on 8.5.91 that these persons were crossing the border. However, it is not known whether this is a real fact or not because neither the inhabitants of the area nor any other civilian or media-men have been allowed to enter that area for ascertaining the real facts. Even the dead bodies of the persons so killed were not handed over to their relatives despite a direction from the State High Court. Even the photographs of the dead persons were not released. In this behalf a writ petition was filed in the State High court but of no consequence. It is becoming evident that it is merely a propaganda that the killings were made on the border during encounter otherwise the fact is that unarmed civilians are apprehended first and then shot at border places and later it is wrongly stated that these persons were crossing the border or had attacked the armed forces.

DACHHIGAM INCIDENT - 7.5.1991 at Dachhigam forces raided a house where some persons were taking shelter because of severe rains.

Also four persons of the same family got killed whose dead bodies were in the mosque of the locality till late night. Number of dead persons could not be identified and were buried later after great difficulty. The authorities did not allow any one to perform the religious ceremonies. A team of local and foreign media men tried their best to visit the spot but were not allowed by the forces and the Government. However, some media men already accompanying the mourners procession while performing their professional duties have also witnessed the occurrence and agreed that no provocation was offered by anyone from among the mourners procession but forces indiscriminately fired and killed scores of people. After some time when the firing stopped, people tried to move to their respective places, a group of paramilitary forces coming from Nowhutta started firing again on the passers-by due to which some more persons got killed and number of others injured. This again is a clear evidence that innocent people are being killed in Kashmir. In this incident five ladies namely Fatima of Khanyar, Shamima of Rainawari, Samina of Rainawari, Dedri of Rajourikadal, Khati of Seshagari Mohalla Khanyar and an infant of two years got killed. The massacre is a part of the pre-planned scheme of suppressing the genuine will of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Some official was nominated by the Government to look into the massacre. People rejected the appointment. They apprehended that the official was to clear the guilty personnel of murders. They demanded enquiry by a judge of High Court,sitting or retired. Government did not agree for obvious reasons of exposure. The people of Kashmir, therefore, choose to appoint a public enquiry commission headed by a retired Judge of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court . Justice M.B.Farooqi was kind enough to extend his services.

On the same day, reportedly, three hours before the shoot out incident at Chotabazar, a CRPF vehicle was attacked by some unidentified persons near Zaldagar which was not immediately retaliated by the forces. But just in order to take revenge from unarmed civilians of the locality, the forces indiscriminately resorted to unjustified killings. The administration also admitted the involvement of the paramilitary officers in unjustified shoot-out incident and immediately took them off the duty just to pacify the public sentiment and with a view to create an impression that the administration was somewhat sincere in dealing with the culprits. However, in the media it was admitted that about 29 persons were killed in the shoot-out incident. Such type of eyewash is not the first one but the administration has been resorting to such tactics for last two years. We believe that the policy of Indian Government and its agents in Kashmir is to commit genocide of innocent civilians whose only demand is to hold plebiscite as promised to them before the international community.
