The Indian Airforce has warned Pakistan that it should not ill treat the Indian Air Force pilot in its captivity namely wing commander Abhinandan whose picture showing him with blood stains on his face and blindfolded has been arbitrarily released by the Pakistan Air force in the social networking sites n on Pakistan news channels against the established norms of Geneva Convention. India has lodged its strongest protest n demanded from Pakistan to safely send back the captured wing commander Abhinandan.

The Indian Air Force has registered its strongest protest with the Pak government n Air Force and warned that it should not mistreat or ill treat him but in view of the injured face with blood on his face it looks as if he has been allegedly hit on the face by the Pakistan Army troopers.

A vedio released on You tube going viral unambiguously show the local populace in Pakistan badly hitting, beating the hapless wing commander abusing him in the presence of the Pak troopers resulting in blood oozing out from his nose n face. The vedio is shocking.

It may be recalled that in the morning Pakistan Air Force’s senior officer Aziz Gaffoor has in the afternoon addressed the Pak media that it has captured two Indian pilots but in the evening it confirmed of having only one pilot in the custody.

But the clarification from the Pakistan side came only after the Indian MEA senior spokesperson Ravish Kumar during his briefing announced about one Indian fighter pilot goung missing in action in which the Indian MIG 16 gunned down the Pakistan’s F 16 when three Pakitan’s fighter aircrafts breached the Indian LOC in the morning and unsuccessfully tried to attack the Indian military installations, the wreckage of which fell on the Pakistani side of the LOC, the Pak F 16 seen coming down burning by our ground forces.

It’s shocking to note that the Pakistan Air Force n the government has belied the Geneva convention n also the diplomatic protocols by not informing the Indian government officially but revealed it to its own media.

According to the established norms of the Geneva convention introduced in 1929 n redefined in 1949 during the world war 2nd no Prisoner Of War ( POW) could be harrassed, ill treated, mistreated or tortured, mentally n physically nor can he or she be questioned against his wishes.

As per the Geneva convention the POW should be treated as a respected citizen by giving him the best possible treatment, hospitability n good food. He or she is entitled for full n adequate medical treatment and should be handed over to the country he or she belongs to after the end of the war or hostilities between the two nations.

According to the Article 13 of the Geneva convention the POWs should be treated as a human being giving him the necessary medical assistence and avoiding any kind of psychlogical or physical torture endangering his or her life.

However, it remains to be seen as to what type of treatment the Pakistan government gives to the Indian Air Force Wing Commander Abhinandan who is currently in their captivity ?

Pakistan cannot be fully relied upon or trusted as a trustful neighbour which had been killing the innocents n martyring our soldiers in Pulwama, Uri n Siachin unprovokingly by openly aiding n abetting the hard core terrorists of LET n JEM n also cladestinely n illegally capturing Jadhav n falsely branding him as Indian spy currently in Pak detention under most tortuous circumstances.

While on the one hand coward Pakistan and its prime minister Imran Khan is playing double standards by appealing for peace and mutual talks to avoid war on the other hand killing innocents by aiding n abetting terrorism n breaching Indian Air Space n LOC n capturing India pilot.

Today the entire nation is standing credibly n solidly behind the Indian Army, Indian Airforce and Navy demanding strong befitting lesson against Pakistan. If Pakistan is really humane it should publicly announce giving up terror factories from its soil, hand over Hafiz Sayeed n Azhar Masood to India n return captured Indian Pilot n Jadhav to India with immediate effect.

Nothing less than this would suffice the Indian people n the government. Failing which it should be ready to confront the most disastrous consequence in the immediate future.

Meanwhile another video has been posted by Pak in social networking sites showing Wing Commander saying that he is safe n sound in Pakistan’s captivity n that he is being nicely taken care of. He even said that after reaching India , if released he will convey it to the Indian side about the affable treatment he is being meted out in Pak under captivity. It’s quite obvious that Abhinandan must have been compelled the statement under duress n pressure as the earlier video showing him being hammered is highly shocking.
