ISLAMABAD (AP) — The eleven-year-old daughter of a prominent Kashmiri rebel leader who faces life in prison in neighboring India has issued an emotional appeal, urging New Delhi to allow her to meet her father. Razia Sultan, the daughter of Mohammed Yasin Malik, 57, made this demand Thursday after she was allowed to make a speech in a legislative assembly in Pakistan-administered Kashmir. She said she was only two years old when she met her father. “I have now turned 11. I miss my father like anything. I crave to hear his voice.” Kashmir is divided between Pakistan and India and is claimed by both in its entirety.
