All eyes on pakistan illegally occupied kashmir (PIOJK)

The poet in PoJK police custody is Ahmed Farhad, as revealed by the Additional Advocate General of Pakistan in the Islamabad High Court.
In a significant admission, the lawyer acknowledged that PoJK (Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir) is a "foreign territory" while justifying the inability to produce Farhad before the court, as he is under custody in PoJK.
Key Points
Ahmed Farhad, a renowned Kashmiri poet, went missing from Islamabad on May 14, 2024.
His family filed a petition in the Islamabad High Court demanding his recovery.
The Additional Advocate General of Pakistan informed the court that Farhad had been "arrested and currently in police custody" in PoJK.
To justify Farhad's non-production, the lawyer stated that PoJK is a "foreign territory," implying it is not part of Pakistan.
This admission contradicts Pakistan's long-standing claim that PoJK is an integral part of the country, referred to as "Azad Kashmir."
The court questioned how Pakistani forces could enter a "foreign territory" like PoJK if it is not part of Pakistan.
The lawyer's statement has sparked backlash and criticism on social media, with many questioning Pakistan's stance on PoJK's status.
By acknowledging PoJK as a "foreign territory," the Pakistani government lawyer has inadvertently aligned with India's position that PoJK is an integral part of the Indian union, illegally occupied by Pakistan.
Imagine if the whole Pak populations continues to chant Inshaallah the global warming would correct itself into global cooling. Pak Zindabad. Inshaallah🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is biggest thief

Even africa looks better than Pakistan😢 they stuck in 90s..look at those electric wires😮
Don't pretend that India is like Switzerland or Europe. India is even worse.
In countries like Egypt and Pakistan, many corporations and businesses are run by the military rather than by qualified business professionals, resulting in significant wealth appropriation by their family members and favoritism. According to sources, almost 50% of high-asset entities, such as power projects and factories, are controlled by the military in both countries.
In Pakistan almost all the corporations run by military.
Ruled by thieves what other option do people have?
Wow those power lines …
Nuclear power with a begging bowl.
Still better than India @@AlHindMaskeen

@Hidaya-pk4gy madrasa chaps like u should embarass urself more n more, especially when clowns like your Wazir e azam and army chief does it for u on daily basis....
Beggars🇵🇰 can't be choosers~ Shahbaz sharif.
Stay in ur aukaat !
You made your own problem because corrup authority all side !!!
Nawaz & Shahbaz Sharifs have had 5 terms in office and have never had any solution to the problem, mainly because they are the culprits. Their families benefit across Pakistan, not paying taxes or electric bills, their homes are provided with expensive generators paid for from the public taxes. They never lose power. Maryam Sharif had power generator parts bought from India when there was an embargo on indian goods over Kashmir dispute. THERE IS A LAW FOR THE CITIZENS AND TOTAL LAWLESSNESS AMONG THESE LEADERS. God grant them the punishment of the grave, for their heartlessness.
30% of all electricity stolen.... wow
Thank you jinnah
Don't be hating on junnah now, mutar head
Yes ..thanks jinnah ❤..Long Live Pakistan 🇵🇰 😘😘😘😘

What a joke how can our Pakistani people let this happen we need to fix up
I'm still waiting for someone to say that the electricity is being stolen by the CIA and the West. Pakistanis would never steal a thing -- highly moral people, as everyone knows. Sri Lankan factory managers will attest to this.
Our people are unable to choose the government of their choice
How will they do anything for this
The electricity power lines as shown in the video seem very dangerous! Why does not the governement build the pending dams and switch to alternate sources of energy! Also, they should negotiate with the IMF wisely and tell them the ground reality of the public! Instead of accepting every demand! Hiring of private companies in this regard might help too, or taking opinions from experts from the energy sector might guide them as well! Also, seeking investment from other countries in the power sector could also help! The taxes are already high in Pakistan and so are the bills. Also introducing anti-theft mechanisms with the help of the latest technology might also help in getting rid-off this menace of loadshedding too!
Because they're prostitutes to the fossil fuel industry.
Just like ALL American Politicians
Looks safe to me. Them too I guess😮
Corruption is the basic criteria to work as in high offices. Otherwise America will not let you to work.
Pakistani people are chill. I have generally seen that when in India petrol prices go up even by just a 1 or 2 rupee people voices against govt. While in Pakistan if the govt increases petrol prices by even 20-30 rupees people are chill in their houses. In India currently we have inflation 5-6% but in Pakistan its above 20% still Pakistanis are chill.
You should make them up to code, too. So dangerous all wiring is henging like that.
We have coal, intense heat, many rivers, sun, undiscovered mineral reserves, wind energy, why still this energy shortage? Many people in Pakistan are nowadays using homemade energy by solar panel systems. Even we have installed one recently in our house. It is green, safe, cheaper and reliable. I hope the government improves the infrastructure, cracks down on power thefts and make a more organized system and country. Install bins on roads, improve transport and hygiene, boost tourism, and for Allah's sake give employment to skilled youth, make education viral, books and literature viral, remove extremism, and make this country a welfare state to live!!!!!!!!!
John mcafeee by qatari standards may be prophet,,,,moral authority,,,but 2 al thaani that is ,,,i dont think same applies 2 any 1 ,,,shehbaz sharrif doesnt need such authorities perhaps
*Pakistan🇵🇰 have border disputes with India & China.*
make border agreement & keep peace!
Then how come they announced subsidy on the price of power in pakistan illegally occupied kashmir (PIOJK) i mean how can this possible? they announced omly 3 pkr per unit for 1 to 100 units i apoeal IMF to please take notice of that and reject this subsidy thank you
overhead cable line, broadband line problem in Pakistan.lt's a very dangerous thing of fire incident.
Make a news on this topic.
How about using the intense heat of summers to make electricity? I have an idea if government supports me?
Wind, solar run of the river hydro, and nuclear need to ve promoted to generate electricity
Only the youth of Pakistan, who are educated and want a change can group together and carryout a systematic campaign to save this country.
We Bangladeshi still have currents this year. Do not know what will happen from next year. Really worried.
😂😂😂😂 Abdel majid tabon and Abdul fattah sisi in Pakistan.
Country like pakisthan must switch to solar and wind like modern days innovative energy supply for house holds

No Money No Honey.
Meanwhile the cheapest oil is owned by who, and they use the income for what? Wake up and smell the stench of the laziest and richest people in the world.
You have to say, yes boss to America.
If not then they can impose cruel leaders on you. And your people suffer because of your bold steps.
