Days after three civilians in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch-Rajouri area were found dead after they were picked up by the Army for questioning, the National Commission for Minorities (NCM) on December 27 took cognisance of the case and issued a notice to the Union Territory’s administration.
The NCM was acting on a complaint by Delhi-based human rights activist Saddam Mujeeb, who compiled information from news reports and alerted it about the incident, seeking action against the perpetrators, and justice for the families of the victims.
