Subject: Justice for the Victims of War Crimes (ref. Saurabh Kalia)
Dear Sirs,
The recent news from media explaining Indian
Government to the Supreme Court of India about its inability to process to the
International Court for Justice to Kargil martyr Captain Saurabh Kalia, under
Geneva Convention on War Crime who was reportedly subjected to brutal torture
in captivity by the Pakistan Army in 1999 due to its bilateral arrangement with
Pakistan as foreign policy to the mutual issues. (Indian Express, Nov 20, 2013)
has compelled to evaluate as an Independent Researcher in Political Science, the
National and International arrangement within the ambit of Political Science and
Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a case study.
The Issues on Regional Crisis and Human Right’s Violations
The struggle for justice for the old parents of
Saurabh Kalia for more than a decade and half for their son without success ignoring
Geneva Convention has raised many issue on the crisis of two nations that
shared a single historical heritage that became the victim of Imperialistic
strategy of the Colonial Rulers.
Territorial disputes became the cause of the crisis of two nations and used
as international tool to control the region towards the economy of drugs and
nurturing the terror outfits by using the tribal ethnics towards violence and
terror. Further the bilateral
arrangement through Shimla agreement has made the population as a scapegoat
under the doctrine of Foreign Policy as a shield.
Violence, Terror and Victims have the affiliation
with the Population of either of the nations that needs an evaluation within
State and people accountability when there is a guaranteed Universal
Declaration for Human Rights as UN Convention.
The creation of Pakistan by the imperialistic
rulers were mainly to provide a land and population from a community who are
ethnically aggressive, invaders and governed by faith as an ‘identity'. The British IR is based on ethnology and
hence the land that developed under a separate nation of exclusive Muslim
community to mainly create an (undercover) defacto army and a training centre
towards insurgency, violence, terrorism, internal conflicts under the shield of
hate campaign or jihadis. Pakistan
never attained Statehood and remained disturbed due to it’s internal and
external crisis. The facilitation of aid
towards the strategic alliance was mainly to hold the region towards the
Imperialistic agenda based on Control of Region and Resources.
To attain the agenda of defacto army and
economy of drugs due to the transit nation and neighbouring country to the
periphery nation engaged in 90% of world’s opium production, i.e., Afghanistan,
thus poverty and under-development of this nation becomes crucial and
mandatory. The economy of terror outfits
and drugs and organized crime became the foremost reason for the
under-development of Pakistan
which led to the failed State.
Further the conflicts with the neighbouring nation,
i.e., India became its
source of income since the extortion, trafficking of drugs, arms and terror and
serve as contract killer and survive on defacto economy controlled by
under-world being hosted in Pakistan. The creation of Pakistan for more than six
decades could not design its own indigenous economy and governance system under
the homogenous culture and surviving as a tool of Imperialistic strategy of
terror, violence, drugs and arms smuggling and its dejure functions
remained on the funds received from the imperialistic power as aid.
Similar attempt was done by creating Bangladesh that was identical with Pakistan on the
basis of language and religion. Bangladesh also provides human resources for the
trafficking and illicit economy through migration to India and become the transit nation
for the human smuggling.
Hence, India’s immediate neighbors have the economy
of illicit activities, which is sucking the peace and prosperity due to absence
of concrete Human Rights of the local population of the either of the nations.
The Strategies of the Violence and
Human Rights Violation
Neither Poverty makes criminals or terrorists nor Religion
influence violence, but it is the criminal instincts of the imperialistic
agenda that creates, manipulates and exploits Poverty and Religion while
violence and crime becomes the tool to facilitate the feudalistic agenda.
Human Resources (men, women and children) for the
illicit activities whether drugs smuggling, forced labour for hazardous
industries or sex trade, street crimes, beggars, arms smuggling or contract
killing or internal conflicts are well designed by procuring a member of the
family surrendered to the illicit trade to make the family livable. These
trafficked populations not only create a threat to the peace and prosperity to
the land of destination, but also create a huge network of indigenous criminal
network that further influence the democratic process of the Statehood and
National and Foreign Policies. This result to the absolute violation of Human
Rights of the Land of Destination and the Land of Origin that has State
protection in a democratic system, which is influenced by muscle and money.
This can be further evaluated with the issue of late
Saurabh Kalia and his other comrades’ human rights violation. Being the victim of War Crime and a part of
the Institution of Army and has a custodian of Statehood, these War Martyrs did
not get justice even when there is Geneva convention that protects against
atrocities for War prisoners. Whereas,
the human rights activism for the lobbyist of indigenous terrorists
(Naxal/Maoist) that is funded by illicit economy of drugs and arms smuggling to
control the region and illicit opium production and
insurgency/infiltration from the cross
border with the help of local network for the terror and violence gets
facilitate while they have no dejure custodians. Pakistan do not own the terror
outfits whereas, these terror outfits are well organized and attain human
rights activism when they are caught.
Army
sources said that the LeT unit that had carried out the January 8 ambush on a
patrol party, beheading the Indian soldier in the Mendhar sector, was also
involved in the five personnel's brutal killing in Poonch. (Headlines Today, New Delhi, August 7,
2013)
It is important to evaluate, who owns Human
Rights. Those who are institutionalized
and held duty to protect humanity deserve the activism of Human Right
guaranteed by UN Declaration or those who facilitate the abuses of Humanity
through terror, violence and crime. Secondly,
who are the custodians of Human Rights violation? Pakistan do not own terror outfits
or infiltrators, but their human rights are protected. Whereas, India owns late Capt. Saurabh Kahli
being part of the institution of Indian Army, but still his Human rights did
not take the attention of the respected authority and international attention.
Cease Fire Violation
Hundreds
of people have fled their villages as a record number of ceasefire violations
continue along the line of control and the international border. The villagers,
who are fed up of the uncertainty and of living under the shadow of fear, are
hoping that the government would heed Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar
Abdullah's call for a tougher stand against Pakistan. (CNN-IBN, October 22,
2013)
According
to the Union Home Minister, there have been as many as 288 ceasefire violations
in J&K this year, the highest in the past 10 years. “In fact, the
cross-border trade from Poonch-Rawalakote route has dropped by 50-70 per cent.
At least 25-30 trucks loaded with goods used to travel from this part to
Rawalkote and vice versa. After border tension escalated, hardly two to three
truck-load of goods cross sides now,” Anand said. (The Indian Express, November
28, 2013)
The oppression of survival being victimized by the
Ceasefire Violation of the locals of both cross borders is also an issue of evaluation
of the Human Rights of the local population.
They not only have the threat of life, but also inability to sustain
their survival, which is further cause of poverty in the region. These poverty stricken regions are further
used for the activities of terror as local network. In other words, the weak and spineless
International Instruments are the cause of violation of Human Rights of the
population due to imperialistic agenda under Global Political Economy, which is
run by economy of drugs, human trafficking and violence.
Mechanism of Correction through
Rehabilitation and reinstating Human Rights
After analyzing, the caused of Poverty and the
imperialistic agenda to oppress the pollution through International Relation,
it becomes mandatory to the Global Elites to take corrective measures to
rehabilitate the population by correcting the Failed States, which is run by
illicit economy of Organized Crime and Terror outfits, irrespective of region.
Pakistan being a failed State due
to its terror outfits, where as Bangladesh
has the economy of human trafficking.
Whereas, India
becomes the land of transit, destination and also origin for the human
trafficking, arms smuggling and drugs.
This is besides; India
is also being victimized of terror attacks.
The economy of Crime always leads to failed State
since Crime destroys the prosperity, which is based on Aptitude and
Civility. Crime always survives on
others’ prosperity. Further benefits of
crime do not benefit the population, but promote poverty and insecurity that
provides them constant flow of human recourses.
The absences of life of dignity as Human Rights are seized under Failed State.
The remedies of Human Rights violation of the
population of the region needs the similar initiative, courage and strong spine
as it is shown on the Syrian massacre through Chemical weapon to which Mr. Barack
Obama took a lead and bring to a collective efforts by the International elites
on the human rights of the Syrian population.
Towards this as a symbolism, the parents of the
Late Capt. Saurabh Kalia should get justice and international attention to
which parents sends their children to protect National Boundary and the
civilian at the cost of their life while having a Geneva convention that
protects War Prisoners from War Crimes.
I am enclosing the details picked from internet of
Late Capt. Saurabh Kalia for your kind perusal.
With best regards,
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
