Mushaal writes to Rahul Gandhi to save Yasin’s life
Islamabad : Mushaal Hussein Mullick, wife of jailed Kashmiri leader Mohammad Yasin Malik, has made a heartfelt plea to Rahul Gandhi, India’s opposition leader, to intervene and save her husband’s life before it’s too late, says a press release.
According to Kashmir Media Service, she has urged Gandhi to pressure the Indian government to immediately transfer Yasin to an intensive care unit (ICU) facility due to his rapidly deteriorating health, as he had gone on an indefinite hunger strike unto death on November 2 against Indian brutalities and illegal arrest and no legal or medical care in jail.
Mushaal, former Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Human Rights and Women Empowerment, wrote the letter to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi requested him for immediate intervention to save the life of Yasin Malik from Indian judicial murder.
She appealed to the international community to take notice of the deteriorating health of Yasin, fearing that the hunger strike could prove fatal for his health because he had already been in extremely unsanitary conditions due to the denial of the best medical facilities.
Former SAPM appealed to world leaders and advocates for justice to take cognizant of the situation because her husband was a chronic heart and kidney patient.
Mushaal stated that Yasin was a symbol of non-violence and a proponent of Kashmir’s peaceful resistance; however, even then he was facing life-threatening neglect in Tihar Jail.
She demanded that he urgently needed medical attention because the indefinite hunger strike could be fatal for his health, as he was being denied proper medical care, no doctor of his choice, not being given life-saving drugs, and no right to a fair trial.
Mushaal urged Rahul Gandhi to initiate an urgent debate on shifting him to an ICU facility in a hospital immediately before it’s too late.
