The disturbing reports emerging from Rawalakot are consistent with the Pakistani authorities’ long history of unlawful violence against protesters in Jammu and Kashmir.
A prompt, independent, and transparent investigation must be ordered into the security forces’ use of force against protesters.
So long as an internet and mobile services blackout remains in place, it will severely impede the independent verification of the full extent of the situation on the ground.
We urge the Pakistani authorities to restore all communications access and allow media and independent observers into the area

🇵🇰 Al Jazeera covered a boycotted Kashmir election, then its site went dark in Pakistan
Al Jazeera English stopped loading across Pakistan today. No word from the government on why.
The timing says plenty. It dropped a day after the Information Ministry slammed the network's election coverage as "yellow journalism" from "external actors."
Kamal Hyder reported from Muzaffarabad on voting day, showing streets that were mostly empty. A boycott, people done with the whole thing. Locals say as many as 80 have been killed in unrest since June.
Pakistan also just told foreign reporters they need permission to work outside Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad, which happens to cover Kashmir.
Block the site, fence off the press, blame outsiders. That's just narrative control.

We urge Pakistani authorities to unconditionally restore Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi Khan’s right to see their family and lawyers.
Both must be given access to adequate medial care and their solitary confinement, which is unlawful, should end immediately.
