Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Paul Rowen (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 10 December 2009, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 22 members in total.


UNIDENTIFIED GRAVES IN INDIAN-HELD KASHMIR

That this House notes with concern a recent report by the International People's Tribunal on Human Rights and Justice documenting the discovery of 2,943 bodies in unmarked and mass graves in Indian-held Kashmir; further notes reports that over 50,000 people have died since 1989 as Kashmiri groups fight for independence; and supports calls for an investigation by an independent body like the International Criminal Court or the United Nations Committee on Human Rights into the circumstances surrounding these deaths.
