Omar Abdullah expresses shock over video

Srinagar, Apr 14 (IBNS): Former chief minister and National Conference president Omar Abdullah has tweeted a video, showing a Kashmiri youth tied with army jeep by Indian Army in Gundipora Beerwah area of Central Kashmir’s Budgam district.

While expressing shock over the incident, Omar Abdullah tweeted, “Here’s the video as well. A warning can be heard saying stone pelters will meet this fate. This requires an urgent inquiry & follow up NOW!!”

In another tweet, Omar wrote, “This young man was TIED to the front of an army jeep to make sure no stones were thrown at the jeep? This is just so shocking!!!! #Kashmir.

Apparently targeting Indian news channels for showing only one side of the coin, Omar in third tweet wrote, “I understand the outrage the CRPF video generated. I’m also outraged that the video of the youth on the jeep won’t generate the same anger. Let’s see channels going ballistic & having discussions with outraged panelists now. Probably not since “Kashmir is ours” hell with Kashmiris.”
