On 10th of every month, the Association of Parents of Disappeared Persons (APDP) stages a silent sit-in protest against Enforced Disappearances in Jammu and Kashmir. In a situation where India has not ratified the International Convention For Protection of all Persons From Enforced Disappearances and the vagueness of India’s Domestic Law that does not enumerate Enforced Disappearance as an offence, the challenges in pursuing legal struggle is insurmountable. There is an official state policy that ensures impunity to Indian Armed Forces and promotes silencing of the past. Indian State and its collaborators have added one more inquiry to the list of the number of inquiries conducted in the past. This inquiry we are told will be conducted into some cases of Killings at the hands of Indian Police and Armed forces during the July 2016 mass uprising. Such inquiries are nothing but a sad reminder of the fact that like other inquires in the past this inquiry will either end with no results or with results that exonerate the perpetrators through sham investigations, forged documents, tampering with forensic samples. During the ongoing uprising more than 100 civilians have been killed, about 1000 have been blinded or have sustained injuries in their eyes in the firing of pellets by Indian Armed Forces. In order to quell the protests and lower the morale and resolve of people, and to force an entire population into submission Kashmir has also witnessed a spree of mass arrests and detentions under the draconian Public Safety Act, 1978,.
