Of Pakistan's crocodile tears....

"The Pakistani rulers' empathy for Kashmir is in fact nothing but crocodile tears while they repeatedly plead innocence instead of seeking apology for the 1971 brutality and genocide they committed," senior Bangladeshi Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu said.

He said Pakistan should apologise for 1971 genocide they committed before talking about Kashmir. The minister also commented that the history of Pakistan had always been one of oppressing ethnic groups besides Bengalis.

Inu's left-leaning Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal is a partner in the ruling Awami League-led grand alliance.

Pakistan has been observing 'Kashmir Day' every year on February 5 since 1990.
