Mirpur, Azad Jammu & Kashmir (HRNW) – The Government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir has revoked its earlier notification withdrawing criminal cases against members of an alleged disruptive committee, resulting in the reactivation of those cases and the continuation of arrests of the accused individuals.
According to official statements, the government has adopted a zero-tolerance policy against individuals accused of disrupting public order and violating the law. Following the cancellation of the withdrawal notification, Mirpur Police resumed legal proceedings in the reopened cases.
Police officials stated that cases involving allegations of damage to public property, vandalism, arson, attacks on law enforcement personnel, and other public order offences have been reactivated. Authorities further confirmed that a 2024 case registered at Dadyal Police Station concerning the alleged assault on an Assistant Commissioner and police personnel has also been reopened. Several named suspects have reportedly been arrested, and investigations are ongoing.
Human Rights Perspective
Human Rights News Worldwide (HRNW) emphasizes that maintaining public order, protecting public property, and ensuring public safety are legitimate responsibilities of the state. However, all law enforcement actions must fully comply with the Constitution, domestic law, and internationally recognized human rights standards.
Every accused person is entitled to due process, legal representation, a fair and impartial trial, and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by a competent court. While those responsible for acts of violence or destruction of public property should be held accountable through lawful judicial processes, investigations, arrests, and prosecutions must remain transparent, proportionate, and respectful of human dignity.
