The unidentified woman claimed she will foot the 270-kilometre distance as there was no traffic on the road to Jammu.“This heartbreaking video of a mother’s desperation to walk hundreds of miles from Kashmir to Kot Bilawal Jail in Jammu just to see her imprisoned son shows the silent suffering of families whose loved ones are kept in faraway prisons.
“It’s why I approached the Honourable High Court to request that undertrials be shifted to their native jails so families can visit them with dignity and support their legal fight. Hoping for a compassionate view,” Mufti said in the post on X.
