I would soon learn the security forces and the militants take who they want, they torture, and they kill. Caught in the middle are the people of Kashmir. More than 60,000 people, mostly innocent civilians, have died in the 15-year conflict. Half a million Indian troops are stationed in Kashmir, fighting Pakistani-funded militants who slip across the border to attack the troops but also to terrorize the local population into giving them shelter and assistance.

While both governments talk of peace, Unreported World reveals that, on the ground, very little has changed. For the local villagers life is a cycle of militant violence and government repression. The team arrive in Srinagar to find Indian police have just violently beaten a group of women who are protesting about the detention of two men and a woman for alleged links to pro-Pakistan militants.

Two sisters tell Jordan that around 25 masked troops from a Special Operations Group had burst in through the window and grabbed their father, mother and uncle. The children are terrified that their parents may join the 8,000 people who international human rights groups say have "disappeared" after being taken away by the security forces over the last 15 years.

  1. If the moderate Muslims stay quiet over the atrocities committed against the Hindu Pundits, and against their continued unjust treatment, one day, even the benign Hindu will rise and speak the same language. Kashimiris should voluntarily end article 35A, and Indian Government should quell the violence by Pakistan.

    Pakistani people should also realise that if this continues, they will become Syria.

  2. Solution to the problem is break pakistan into 8 pieces and then return back kashmir to India , original owners with signed accession agreement of maharaja hari singh, which suggests pakistan is illegally holding kashmir

  3. Media is paid by wabahi radical organisation to show hindus and India in bad shade this has been happening since 1990. they want to show muslims as victims, and hindus as oppressors, where as the reality is completely opposite. Media show India in bad share because it is financed with terrorist money. Jazira, press tv are other channels who are proIslamist radicals and anti Hindu.

  4. USA does not want India to become a competitor. USA weaponizes and funds Pakistan to attack India. Saudi Arabia an ally of USA provides funding and wahabhi ideology for radicalizing the people of kashmir.

  6. People who say, Sandra hasn't taken Indian view are blind because they can't see no one from Indian side is ready to come on camera to clarify their stand. And how can these pro Indian savages come? They are murderers. I'm watching this in 2017 and this makes my blood boil.

  12. Guidelines for freedom of Jammu and Kashmir from India.
    People of Kashmir are struggling for freedom of Jammu and Kashmir from last 70 years against Hindu Majority India.
    During this period India has killed and injured uncountable innocent Kashmiri violating their human rights and by humiliating their right of freedom, respect and honor.
    Following are few Guidelines which might be helpful for people of Kashmir in their struggle for freedom and respect.
    Freedom of Kashmir is necessary for Respect and Honor of Kashmiris.
    When it was decided in 1947 that to stabilize United India politically, their will be partition into Majority Hindu India and Majority Muslim India, but by violating this principle Majority Muslim State of Jammu and Kashmir was occupied by Majority Hindu India by deception and use of force, which resulted in great misbehavior and insult for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, when this misbehavior and deception was further augmented by denying right of self determination to Kshmiries even after accepting the UN resolution for right of self determination for people of Kashmir by India, so freedom of Kashmir is not only necessary as democratic and human rights of innocent and oppressed people of Kashmir but also for maintaining their respect, regard and honor of innocent Kashmiri. So people of Kashmir should try to convince world opinion with reference to link of their freedom with respect, regard, honor and sanctity of Kashmiri.
    Use of Hindu religion in freedom of Kashmir.
    Historically religion can play a very important role in the freedom of Kashmir, both Hindus and Muslims religions played a great role in bringing both parties on consensus for partition of India. The same thing can be used today for forcing India to accept Muslim Kashmiri freedom. Calls of Freedom for Kashmir should be directed and addressed to Hindu Majority of India, indicating victimization of Muslims by Majority Hindu India in Kashmir, this will apply a great moral pressure on Hindu India and their Hindu religion, as no religion or followers of any religion wants to be labeled as victimizers or abusers.
    Demand of Annexation with Pakistan should be direct.
    Although right of self determination and plebiscite as per UN resolution are main basis for freedom of Kashmir, but now Kashmiri Political Leadership should just demand DIRECT ANNEXATION WITH PAKISTAN, this demand will give a crystal clear message to world, as ambiguity and giving unknown options leads to confusion and complication, and create procedural ambiguity and hurdles in the main cause and goal.
    Moreover there is no need to create any ambiguity as no Hindu majority State in India was annexed with India after referendum or plebiscite, same case and example should be followed for inclusion of Muslim Majority state of Jammu and Kashmir in Pakistan. There is no need to bother India for plebiscite. India should just quit and vacate Jammu and Kashmir, so that Kashmiri can decide their future themselves.
    Victimization of White Kashmiri Race by India.
    Victimization of unique White and Reddish Kashmiri race by Indians, who themselves are dark color is deplorable, Kashmiri can use this discriminatory racial victimization by India, for justification of their right of freedom, India is trying to subjugate Kashmiris by keeping one million brutal Indian army in a small valley of Kashmir, in this huge oppressing army there is no representation of Kashmiri race, which is a clear sign of racial repression and victimization of Kashmiri by India.
    People of Kashmir can use this point for support in civilized western world and USA, and regions of world where white race is prevalent, and support of nations who faced racial discrimination as South and other African countries.
    Victimization of Muslims by India.
    Victimization of Muslims by India is an established fact, how Indian government killed millions of Muslims in 1947, How India still is misbehaving with its Muslim minority, How India is trying to create disharmony and instability among Muslims countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh and how India is using Israel for victimization of Kashmiris, by using same tactics against Kashmiri as Israel is using against Palestinians. All these facts prove India anti Muslims policies. Kashmiri can use these facts for finding support for their cause in Muslim countries and Arab world.

  13. I am amazed at comments by the Indians here . A minority faction of extremist Muslim doesn't justify your feelings. One has to be fair and with time its becoming more clear that India had to be divided in 1947,the Hindu mind set is never going to go away. Its really sad .

  14. I don't know what point is being argued here.You name a country where these things don't happen.Its appalling to see such a prejudice against one country.I think given the security threat and the larger interests the acts are completely reasonable and lawful.

  17. Has anyone one got the guts to expose the suffering of locals of POK at the hands of Pakistan security forces under pressure from china. Over 200 chinese companies are engaged in mining of copper, uranium, marble, sapphires and other minerals used for space technology. 100's of local are locked up in jails for opposing the Chinese mining companies. 11000 chinese troops are present in gilgit baltistan region to help in suppression of locals, obviously they are not there to offer prayers. Those Pakistanis wish to lay their claims on our land, I would ask them to get the part of kashmir from china first, which you ceded to China without fight.yes that part starts from karkurrum pass to gilgit, comprises of 5000 sq. Km. Whole world knows that all the militants are pakistani funded and trained. Otherwise there would be no problem in our land. The reason sometimes local suffered because your terrorists disguise themselves as locals and ambush army like gutless cowards. They use innocent civilians as shield. If they hide amongst locals where army would go to find them.

  18. At least something has to be done by Indian government which should provide them safety and all Rights and Opportunities which other states of India has. Kashmir should get equal rights and safety like other states of India and if that is not possible for our government then it should be freed. Live and Let Live!!

  22. India did not kill the innocent people, If that would have happened India's own people would have stood against it, those were the terrorist who were killed, breaking the law and order in the state, killing their own people and trained by Pak (a terrorist state) now the whole world acknowledges it. If you are talking about UN resolution than its also says that Pak occupied Kashmir and China's occupied kashmir should also be given a chance, not only India administered Kashmir. In Pak and China the voice of people is crushed brutally. Its only India and its democratic system where your allowed and express yourself freely.

  23. kashmir was never part of either india or pakistan. in 1947 ruler of kashmir joined india ,later U.N recognized kashmir a disputed territory whose future will be decided by its own people.till date this right has never been granted to them.india has failed to win hearts and minds of kashmiris from last 60 years.india has killed over five lakh people from 1947 and arrested thousands.when all political and peacefull methods of demands were rejected by india kashmiris were forced to take guns against india in 1990.india has deployed more than seven lakh troops in kashmir to suppress the voice of people.currently there is decrease in number of armed millitants in kashmir,but india is facing the popular peaceful mass protests from 2008 which sends shocking waves across india.people believe that india has occupied kashmir against their wishes. it is better for india to stop misleading world and accept the ground realities of kashmir.india can kill people but she could not kill the aspirations of people.aspirations pass on from one generation to another.

  24. I don't understand why is Pakistan so sacred of India. India has never attacked any country in fact Pakistan has attacked us several times.

    I am in support of an independent Kashmir, but we should be realists. We would go back to square one i.e. 1947 when Pakistan &India were created and Kashmir was independent and then tribesmen(supported by Pakistan - this is how they use revenues for the new state) invaded it &the Kashmiri King had to sign the instrument of accession. An independent Kashmir would be like a piece of meat sandwiched between two wolves.

    The only solution is that the line of control needs to become the border where the two sides respect and develop their own parts.

  25. The documentary is made on the Indian side of Kashmir, I dare the reporter to do the same on the Pakistani side of Kashmir.

    Being an Indian I am not saying India is a big saint, India has committed atrocities but theses atrocities are being handled by the judiciary in a democratic setup (though faulty they may be). In fact, Indian parliament has passed a act saying only Kashmirs can buy land in Kashmir to avoid the demographic and population change whereas on the Pakistani side the Muslims from West Pakistan have been encouraged to flood in (like Israelis settlements filling up Palestine) in Pakistani Occupied Kashmir.

    In India the army (which is most times irrational and brutal) are under the Indian parliament but in Pakistan they rule their nation.
