New Pak FM raises Kashmir issue with UNSG

Islamabad: Raking up the issue of alleged human rights violations in Kashmir yet again, Pakistan's new Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif on Thursday sought the UN Secretary General's attention towards the matter.

Asif in a statement 'strongly condemned the recent killings in Jammu and Kashmir as well as harassment of Hurriyat leadership',



the Foreign Office (FO) said.

He also accused India of altering the demography of Jammu and Kashmir by settling non-Kashmiris in the state and sought the Secretary General's attention towards it, the FO said.

Asif reiterated Pakistan's 'moral, political and diplomatic support to the people of Jammu and Kashmir.'
