SRINAGAR, May 29 (Agencies): Reacting to the statement of Indian Army chief Bipin Rawat on the issue of “human shield”, Human Rights Watch Executive Director Keneth Roth on Monday tweeted saying Indian army chief shows ‘criminal leadership.”
“Indian army chief shows criminal leadership, backing as "innovative" troops' use of Kashmir man as a human shield,” Human Rights Watch Executive Director Keneth Roth tweeted.
On Sunday the Indian army chief had termed the “infamous” act of strapping a Kashmiri to an army Jeep as “innovative” and said that commending the army officer was to boost the morale of his army which was fighting a “dirty war” in Kashmir.
Bipin Rawat even went on saying, “I wish these people, instead of throwing stones at us, were firing weapons at us. Then I would have been happy. Then I could do what I (want to do).”
