Kashmir Observes International Day For Disappeared Persons A silent sit-in protest was held Friday by a rights group in Srinagar to observe the International Day for Disappeared Persons. The Association of Parents of Disappeared Persons (APDP), a group of human rights activists and family members of people who have become victims of human rights violations by separatist militants and government forces in the disputed territory, held the protest in Srinagar Pratap Park. Carrying placards and long banners, the group paid homage to more than 10,000 victims who are believed to have gone missing from the territory ever since a violent conflict broke out in the disputed territory in which more than 70,000 people have been killed.
