J&K: Tribal Man Commits Suicide After Alleged Torture By Police

Tejal Verma

A man from Jammu And Kashmirโ€™s Kathua committed suicide after alleged torture and harassment by police.

The police have ordered a high-level inquiry, where an officer of the Deputy Inspector General (DIG) rank has been told to submit a report within 10 days.

The 25-year-old man named Makhan Din, said in the video that he is dying by suicide so that no one else is subjected to torture and humiliation by the police the way he was subjected.

The man has alleged that the police tortured him and forced him to confess his links with terrorists.

Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah has discussed the matter with the Central government.

Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah said on the social media platform X, โ€œI have seen the reports of excessive use of force & harassment of Makhan Din in police custody in Billawar leading to his suicide and the death of Waseem Ahmed Malla, shot by the army under circumstances that are not entirely clear. Both these incidents are highly unfortunate and should not have happened.โ€

โ€œJ&K will never be completely normalised and free of terror without the cooperation of & partnership with the local population. Incidents like these risk alienating the very people who we need to carry with us on the road to complete normalcy. I have taken up these incidents with the Union Government & insisted that both incidents are inquired into in a time bound, transparent manner. The Government in J&K will also order its own inquiries.โ€ he added.
