Abstract

Systemic and systematic human rights violations in Indian-administered Kashmir are much better documented than those on Pakistani side. Multiple reports published by international and local human rights organisations (the latter accounts hardly exist in Pakistan's chunks of Kashmir), providing structural analysis and exemplification of human rights abuses, with reference to particular cases, personal accounts of the victims, etc., are known to the experts who undertake objective investigation of Kashmir conflict, but not to the general international public opinion. The compilation and analysis of selected reports by governmental and non-governmental organisations, published before J&K's bifurcation in 2019, presented in this chapter, are followed by exemplification of case studies and patterns of human rights (HR) violations and the post-2019 dynamics, illustrated in the next chapters. It enables us to unpack the scale and intensity of these abuses.
