Poonch, June 24
Residents of villages near the Line of Control (LoC) allege that the Army has been using innocent villagers as a counter-strategy to fight militants. In the process, there have been serious human rights violations and the civil administration have been unable to fix responsibility in such cases, besides providing justice to the victims.
