From Hiding, JAAC Leader Shaukat Nawaz Mir Exposes Pakistan's ‘Massacre’ In PoJK | Exclusive Details Reported By, Last Updated: June 13, 2026, 23:44 IST Mir claimed that the level of state suppression in PoJK has eclipsed the conditions seen in traditional conflict zones Police officials patrol an area amid the ongoing violence in PoK. Image/PTI The deep-seated socio-political instability within Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) has reached a critical flashpoint following the release of a harrowing audio message by the prominent leader of the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC), Shaukat Nawaz Mir. Speaking from an undisclosed location where he remains in hiding, Mir issued a desperate, wide-ranging appeal directed at local residents, the overseas Kashmiri diaspora, and international human rights institutions. In his address, the fugitive leader alleged that the Pakistani state apparatus and its powerful military establishment have unleashed a ruthless campaign of structural terror and widespread violence across the region to completely crush the ongoing civil rights movement. According to the latest audio transmission, Pakistani security forces and intelligence agencies have systematically targeted members of the JAAC Core Committee alongside the families of overseas Kashmiris who have provided financial or vocal support to the agitation.

Mir detailed severe human rights violations, claiming that law enforcement personnel are forcibly entering private residences, destroying personal property, and routinely disrespecting women during aggressive nocturnal raids. The leader stated that numerous committee members have been arbitrarily detained, while a significant number have been subject to enforced disappearances, leaving their families with no information regarding their whereabouts or safety. Allegations of a Heavy-Handed Crackdown Characterising the ground reality in the territory as a humanitarian crisis, Mir claimed that the level of state suppression in PoJK has now eclipsed the conditions seen in “traditional conflict zones like Gaza and Srinagar". He warned that the establishment has escalated its response to the level of a systemic massacre, asserting that paramilitary detachments have been given mandates to use direct, lethal force against any individuals gathering in the public square. This aggressive posture has reportedly led to a rising toll of casualties, with Mir confirming that multiple local residents have been killed during recent clashes in the volatile districts of Kotli, Neelum, and Rawalakot. Top intelligence sources monitoring the frontier told CNN-News18 that these escalating developments have thoroughly exposed the absolute, top-down control that Islamabad exerts over the peripheral region.
