Post Investigation Trauma Care for Srinagar Families

This is a petition to request the govt of India for a Post-trauma support to the immediate families of those who died in fake encounters in Srinagar. Exhuming the bodies for investigation is not opposed or criticised. But we can not overlook the trauma the families have gone through in identifying the exhumed bodies.
All these victims were carefully selected, keeping in view their miserable financial conditions and negligible stand in society and hence no protest against the culprits.

Keeping their agony in mind, I appeal to the Government of India for a proper medical assistance so that these families are able to survive the second death of their son, husband and father.

Following is the list of victims whose bodies were exhumed for investigation:

Name: Ali Mohammad Padroo, A Govt. Employee
Place: Kokernag
Date: Missing since March 8, 2006
Description: Fke encounter

Family: Wife Shameena identified the body.


Name: Ghulam Nabi Wani

Family: Wife and and the inconsolable son Mudassir identify the body

Name: Abdul Rehman Padder, Carpenter

This is a pain we all can feel. So why not try to share by helping those silenly suffering in the valley.

Let's make our voice heard.
