Baloch protests! Protesters in London demand UN intervention in Balochistan

London, May 20: The Baloch National Movement (BNM) has staged a demonstration outside the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's residence in London. The protest was against the illegal arrest of Noorjan Baloch by Pakistani forces in Hoshaap.

 

 

 

 

After Noorjan's illegal arrest, she was later produced in a court and charged with fake and baseless FIRs and again the forcible disappearances of Baloch students and their racial profiling in various universities of Punjab (Pakistan). A large number of BNM workers participated in the demonstration and displayed palcards about the ongoing human rights violations in Balochistan.

 

 

 

 

 

Strongly condemning the extrajudicial arrest of Noorjan Baloch, the speakers at the protest said that the state of Pakistan is violating all laws of war in Balochistan, which are a humiliation of humanity and violation of basic human rights and international laws." According to them, the state of Pakistan has been arresting and disappearing women in Balochistan for a long time.

 

 

They further said, "Today, Baloch women are being tortured along with men in Pakistani torture cells and recently Pakistan has also intensified this practice." Another speaker added, that the Pakistani govt is humiliating Baloch women by justifying it as retaliation after the acts of Banuk Sharai Baloch and trying its best to threaten all Baloch men and women.
