JKLF has claimed that some criminals and Pak army men were taking away the vital organs from those killed in the killer quake in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) to make a quick buck. Besides this, criminals were taking away children and women for selling, JKLF's Diplomatic Committee Chairman Shabir Choudhry said in a statement. "While the earthquake has brought untold miseries and suffering to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan, some selfish and criminal minded people have made business from plight of these unfortunate victims," he said.JKLF is extremely concerned about looting and kidnapping of Kashmiri children and women by organised groups who came from various parts of Pakistan and did not hesitate in taking out body organs of victims and selling them, he said. "What hurts us that apart from some criminal minded civilians, some army men were also involved in selling items designated for the earthquake victims," the statement added.
He said the authorities in PoK and Pakistan have exposed themselves that they have no civil defence system and are incapable of dealing with any disaster, natural or otherwise. Kashmiri leaders, including Yasin Malik, by offering relief money are not helping victims but are supporting corrupt leaders in PoK as their record shows that money might not get to the affected people, he said.
