MASS GRAVE OF SIKHS KILLED IN NOVEMBER 1984 DISCOVERED IN JAMMU

A Mass Grave has been discovered in District Reasi, Jammu & Kashmir where 16 Sikhs were mercilessly murdered by crushing their heads on November 1, 1984. The victims were inside Gurudwara Singh Sabha Talwara colony when the attackers came for them on November 1, 1984, dragged them out and murdered them by crushing their heads with stones and rocks. According to the 26 years old FIR and other official documents excavated by AISSF and SFJ, 16 Sikhs who were attacked and killed on November 1, 1984 in Talwara Colony, Reasi, Jammu & Kashmir were mostly employees working at nearby Salar Dam. On November 1, 1984, a group of attackers came to the Gurudwara Singh Sabha Talwara Colony where the victims had taken shelter. The attackers got hold of the victims and then tortured to death 16 of them by crushing and grinding their heads with rocks and stones. AISSF & SFJ announced that they will file a writ petition before Jammu and Kashmir High Court against the Government's inaction against killing of 16 deaths. It is a matter of grave concern that "despite the evidence and filing of FIR, the killing and murder of 16 Sikhs in Reasi Jammu was not even investigated let alone prosecuted", stated attorney Gurpatwant Singh Pannun Legal Advisor to Sikhs For Justice

According  to Karnail Singh Peermohammad President AISSF, not only the killing of  Sikhs in Reasi was brutal and ruthless but the continuous denial of  justice is also equally ruthless. Just like the case of Hondh-Chillar  Mass Grave, AISSF and SFJ will also take action in the case of Reasi  killing by approaching the High Court and by seeking justice for the  Sikh victims, added Peermohammad.   AISSF  and SFJ released the copies of F.I.R filed 26 years ago and the copies  of other documents along with the list of the 16 Sikhs who were killed  on November 1984 at Reasi, Jammu & Kashmir.
