Pakistan denounces UN report on conflict-related sexual violence

Pakistan has denounced a UN report on conflict-related sexual violence for not including crimes of violence committed in Indian Illegally occupied Jammu Kashmir and Israeli-occupied Palestine.

Speaking at UN Security Council, Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Munir Akram urged Secretary-General to rectify the Report’s omissions and list India and Israel amongst those parties perpetrating conflict-related sexual violence in future reports to the Security Council.

Pakistani envoy said since India’s unilateral and illegal measures of 5 August 2019, conflict-related violence and harassment and humiliation of women and girls in Kashmir has increased significantly.

Munir Akram also called for faithful implementation of all Security Council resolutions related to protracted conflicts.
