Maqbool Bhat, Kashmiri freedom fighter

The man

This powerful statement is by Maqbool Bhat, a leading & inspiring figure of the Kashmiri freedom struggle executed in a New Delhi jail in 1984 at the age of 46. Indian authorities continue to refuse to return his body to Kashmir for respectful & honored burial.

The force of this commitment makes Maqbool Bhat not just a leader of Kashmiri freedom but an inspiration & a giant to all of suffering humanity.

This is a musical tribute by Kashmiri rapper MC Kash demanding India return the bodies of Shaheed Maqbool Bhat & Shaheed Afzal Guru, another freedom fighter executed by India:
