President Jammu Kashmir Salvation Movement Altaf Ahmed Bhat has condemned the brutal thrashing of renowned Epidemologist\u00a0Dr Muzaffar Ahmed in\u00a0Chadoora town of Central Kashmir\u2019s Budgam district.<\/p>\n

Bhat said that the brutal forces under the directions of Fascist Modi are carying out preplanned actions to suppress Kashmiris in every way possible. Indian forces are now targeting Medical personal to punish them for treating COVID-19 patients in the region.<\/p>\n

According to the Reports The incident forced Chief Medical Officer to register a complaint before District Development Commissioner Budgam. \u201cI have written to SSP Budgam as well and this won\u2019t be tolerated anymore,\u201d CMO Budgam, Dr Tajamul Hussain Khan told news agency KNT.<\/p>\n

The victim, Dr Muzaffar Ahmed, who looks the entire Covid-19 work in Budgam and is a renowned Epidemiologist, said that he was walking by foot to catch a vehicle for Budgam, when in Chadoora market, he was stopped at a barricade by CRPF personnel. \u201cDespite revealing my identity, the troopers hit me with batons, dragged me on the road, kicked my chest and it was only after the intervention of some locals that they left me and I was rushed to District Hospital Budgam. I have suffered bone injuries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Taking strong note of the incident, Chief Medical Officer Dr Tajamul said that these troopers are over ruling the directions of Police Chief Dilbagh Singh who has directed them not to stop any health worker. \u201cThe unfortunate part is that we can\u2019t go for even a strike as the situation doesn\u2019t allow us. It was sheer barbarism on part of troopers who even didn\u2019t spare a renowned Epidemiologist like Dr Muzaffar,\u201d Dr Tajamul told KNT adding that after interacting with victim doctor, he felt sorry for him.<\/p>\n

He said he has met District Development Commissioner and will also bring the matter into the notice of SSP Budgam. \u201cThis hooliganism won\u2019t be tolerated and I am going to lodge an FIR against these CRPF personnel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chief Medical Officer said that the victim doctor who according to him is a front line Covid warrior has suffered severe bone injuries and is admitted at District Hospital Budgam. \u201cI condemn this barbaric attack and whole medical fraternity demands action against these unbridled troopers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
