The protestors marched in Azad Jammu and Kashmir and were demanding to release the orphan boy who mistakenly crossed the Line of Control -- a de facto border dividing Kashmir between Pakistan and India --- and Indian forces arrested and taken away.

Wahid Kashir, Head of Current Affairs Jammu Kashmir TV, said the Indian forces illegal detained the boy.

“The @hrw ,@UCLHRC, needs to pay attention to 14 years old orphan Abdul Samad, Who is currently illegally detained by #IndianArmy in #IOK just because he bymistake while playing with his friends crossed the #LOC,” he wrote on Twitter.

On Friday the student action forum hold a huge protest in Tatri Note area near the LOC and demanded the Indian forces to release the child.

“We are demanding from the United Nations and UN Human Rights Commission to help us and release our child from the Indian detention,” his maternal uncle said in a video statement aired on Kashmir TV.

The protestors said that the child is in detention from last two month which is against the international law.

“Azad Jammu and Kashmir government is appealed to take steps for the release of 14-year-old Abdul Samad, otherwise the protest will continue throughout the state.” khawaja khursheed kashmiri said.

India has fenced most parts of the LoC , however still there are areas where locals couldn’t identify the temporary demarkation and Indian soldiers arrest if anyone mistakenly crossing into their areas.

In October last year, the Indian forces killed Zia Mustafa, a Pakistani prisoner who mistakenly crossed the LoC in Azad Kashmir in 2003 and India detained him for nearly 20 years.

Pakistan Foreign Ministry later summoned the Indian senior diplomate in Islamabad and lodged protest over the killing of Mustafa in a fake encounter.
