Concocted cover-up story, says PAGD on SIT report

Srinagar: People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) on Tuesday said that today’s press briefing of Jammu and Kashmir police about Hyderpora military operation is only a repetition of the old story.

In a statement, PAGD said that it does not even, slightly give any objective picture of this shocking incident.

“There is a strong public perception that the civilians killed in the incident were made human shields by the armed forces and the latest statement of the police seems to be a concocted cover-up story,” said PAGD spokesman in a statement.

“It will not suffice the legitimate concerns of the people at large and family of the slain victims,” it said, adding, “It firmly believes that nothing short of a credible judicial probe will clear the doubts”.

PAGD firmly believes that nothing short of a credible judicial probe will clear the doubts, the statement said.

The administration must, without any further delay, order a time-bound judicial probe.
