The group, which claims to have hacked more than 200 government and private websites on India’s Independence Day last year, posted messages like “Free Kashmir from illegal occupation supporting Kashmir” on the website of Jammu-based Amarnath Yatri Niyas.

 “A big blot on the face of so-called Indian democratic state, which holds state of Jammu and Kashmir under illegal occupation and has committed the worst human rights violations,” says the message on the home page of www.amarnathyatriniyas.org 

It says the “world has ever seen, in a new tactics employed by Indian Intel. which with has under gone killing of more than 300 teenagers students from 2008 to 2010 and till now (sic).”

The Amarnath Niyas works for the facilities like food and medicines for the pilgrims who visit Amarnath shrine located in south Kashmir’s Pahalgam area from different states of India. The organisation is run by many Hindu religious groups, traders and voluntaries from various professions. 

The hackers’ message adds: “This is a policy of slow genocide in State of J&K. As young as 8 year Kid, was brutally murdered by the hands of occupational forces.  Since India Judiciary Stands Exposed as the Culprits involved have neither been booked nor bought in the court of law. This is the message to all the international forums that claims of Indian Democratic setup is nothing but a HOAX. It’s a high time when international bodies should cognise the world about the brutal face of Indian Democracy (sic).” 

The hackers have also uploaded the video of the killings of 2010 agitation in the Valley in which more than 120 protesters and bystanders were killed in action by the government forces.
Confirming that its website has been hacked, Yatri Niyas’s convenor Gineshvar Mishra told Kashmir Reader that “I also came to know about this incident through my friend.”
Mishra said they were working to restore the website to its original form
