The Commission was informed thereafter that the State Government had constituted a Commission of Inquiry headed by Shri Justice G.A. Kuchai to look into this matter and to fix responsibility on the delinquent public servants responsible for this wrong-doing. On 16 January 2003, the Government of Jammu & Kashmir formed a Cabinet sub-committee to examine the Justice Kuchai Commission's report and to suggest further action on it in order to ensure that no guilty person escaped prosecution. 4.22 As regards the case of Jalil Andrabi, who was abducted and subsequently died, no progress was reported during the past year. The case remained subjudice before the High Court of Jammu & Kashmir. Despite a notice having been served on the army to produce the officer suspected of being involved in this matter, this had not been done. Once again, the Commission urges the Central Government to ensure that action is taken to resolve this painful matter which has been a source of continuing embarrassment to the country. 4.23 Throughout the year under review, the Commission continued to be deeply involved in efforts to monitor and alleviate the problems being faced by members of the Kashmiri Pandit community, of whom some 300,000 have been compelled to leave the Valley since the insurgency began. 4.24 It will be recalled that, upon the recommendation of the Commission, a committee had been constituted at the State-level to examine and expeditiously resolve the difficulties being faced by the Kashmiri Pandits. To this end, the Commission had also appointed its Special Rapporteur to serve on the committee and to keep the Commission regularly informed of the efforts being made. 4.25 It was a matter of deep regret to the Commission, as also to the Kashmiri Pandits that, in the year 2000-2001, the committee had not been meeting with the regularity expected of it. The matter had therefore been taken up by the former Chairperson of the Commission at the highest echelons of the State Government when he had visited Jammu & Kashmir. 4.26 With the change in Government in the State following the election conducted in October 2002, fresh impetus was given to the efforts of this Commission by its new Chairperson, who visited Jammu accompanied by the Special Rapporteur of the Commission.
