2010 Machil encounter
The Machil encounter refers to a controversial incident that occurred on April 30, 2010, in the Machil sector of Jammu and Kashmir, India. The event involved the killing of three individuals, identified as civilians, by Indian Army personnel during a counter-insurgency operation. The Army claimed that the victims were militants attempting to infiltrate from Pakistan. However, subsequent investigations and public outcry raised serious concerns regarding the legitimacy of the encounter, leading to allegations of human rights violations and extrajudicial killings. The incident sparked widespread protests in the region and intensified debates over military operations and the protection of civil rights in conflict zones, drawing attention from national and international human rights organizations.
