Later, in a statement, the UKPNP strongly condemned an attempt of the kidnapping of a youth by the secret agencies of Pakistan.

"The vigilant and brave people on spot have unfoiled their illegal activity and slapped those rogue elements who have been involved in many such activities with complete impunity for years. The time has come to teach them a befitting lesson every day," said a statement by UKPNP.

It added, "We demand the international community to immediately formulate a fact-finding mission so that they could know about the state of human rights in both the peripheries under illegal Pakistani occupation since 1947". (ANI)
