Some quotes from various leading human rights groups and agencies about how Indian forces regularly torment the innocent people of Kashmir:

Torture methods most frequently cited (against Kashmiris) were beatings often with canes, and, less frequently, suspension by the wrists or ankles, electric shocks and rape."   

"Methods of torture include severe beatings, electric shock, suspension by the feet or hands, stretching the legs apart, burning with heated objects and sexual molestation. One common form of torture involves crushing the leg muscles with a heavy wooden roller."

"Detainees arrested by the Indian Army and paramilitary forces in Jammu and Kashmir are usually taken to special interrogation centres, where torture is reportedly routine. Their relatives are not told where they are and do not know where to look for them."
