Srinagar, April 24: Awami Itihaad Party (AIP) MLA from Langate Sheikh Khursheed on Friday launched a scathing attack over the dismissal of interim bail plea of Member of Parliament Er Rashid, saying the decision exposes a disturbing lack of compassion and raises serious questions about the fairness of the system.

In a strongly worded statement, Sheikh Khursheed said denying a son the chance to see his critically ill father in his final moments is “nothing short of inhuman” and goes against the basic principles of justice and humanity.

Sheikh Khursheed said: “Denial of interim bail to Er Rashid, even as his father lies on deathbed waiting for the last glimpse of his incarcerated son, is nothing short of inhuman,” he said.

He said the issue is not confined to one individual but reflects a broader pattern that demands introspection from institutions responsible for upholding justice. “When compassion is absent in moments that demand humanity the most, it shakes public faith in the system,” he said.
