SRINAGAR: An Indian occupied Kashmir (IoK) based cyber hackers group hacked more than 200 websites across India on Monday as the country was celebrating its Independence Day.
The hacked sites ranged from those of IT companies to government websites and colleges.
The group calling itself ‘ZCompany Hacking Crew’ posted slogans in favour of freedom of Kashmir and Palestine. A graphic of a veiled youth carrying catapult has also been posted on the official websites. The websites also play patriotic songs seeking freedom for Indian occupied Kashmir.
“We observe Black Day with the people of Indian occupied Kashmir on 15th August. Free Kashmir. Freedom is our goal. End the occupation,” reads the introductory message in most of the hacked websites.
“This message is not for the Indian government but for the common Indian people who don’t know what their government hides. For those of your politicians who boast of IoK being an integral part of India read your own law books,” the message adds.
The hackers have also posted an act of the Indian Penal Code on the website that reads, “Indian Penal Code (Act No. 45 of 1860) CHAPTER-II SEC 18: India. India means the territory of India excluding the Jammu and Kashmir."
The message further reads that the 15th of August is special for the people of India because of the freedom they got on this day. However, the group questions the masses if they really deserve to celebrate this freedom.
“Everyday people are not only being humiliated but killed as well. Fake encounters and rape is the order of the day in occupied Kashmir. Kashmiris have protested time and again against Indian occupation and many people, mostly teenagers, have been killed,” it says.
The group says that when media tries to show the excesses in IoK, the authorities ban it. The group said that even the people protesting on social networking website like Facebook are arrested.
