Speaking on the occasion Dr Lakhu Lohana said that the Pakistani military had been usurping the rights of
smaller provinces. “Pakistani army dominated by the people of Punjab, has been plundering the natural
resources of Sindh and Balochistan, General Pervez Musharraf if following double standard. On the one had he
pretends to be fighting terrorism but on the other hand he is supporting Taliban and Al-Qaeeda covertly. The
weapons destined to be used against the Al-Qaeeda elements are being used against innocent people of
Balochistan. Pakistani state is the biggest supporter of fundamentalism and extremism. It is the time that
international community take notice of this double standard of General Musharraf and Pakistani army”. He said that
small nationalities has always been oppressed by pakistani military. “A number of Baloch nationalist leaders like
Dr Safdar Sarki, Ghulam Mohammed Baloch and Mr Saleem Baloch have been kidnapped by Pakistani agencies
and no body knows about their whereabouts. They have not been produced before any court of law. Thousand of
political activists have also been arrested and they are being kept in inhuman conditions and tortured in secret
dungeons of Pakistan’s Punjabi army and agencies. We demand international intervention in Sindh and
Balochistan to put an end to injustices being committed by the Pakistani state. He further said Pakistan is like a
poisonous snake that will sting the hand that feeds her. Therefore, the International community and the US must
know that Pakistan is friend of no one. Today Pakistan is hurting secular minded people of Balochistan but
tomorrow-Pakistani terrorist will reach at your doorsteps. ”
Abdullah Baloch said that 1000s Baloch had been killed in the military operation in Balochistan. “According the
UN figures, more then 84,000 people have been displaced from only two districts of Balochistan. More then 6000
educated Baloch youth, leaders and political and social activists have been kidnapped by Pakistani agencies. The
military is committing gross violations of Human Rights”.
Samad Baloch claimed that Pakistan’s Punjabi army was plundering natural resources of Balochistan. “The
Baloch are being converted into a minority in their own land. Their lands are being snatched. They youth are being
arrested and tortured and have even been killed by so-called law enforcement agencies. There is an immense of
sense of insecurity among the Baloch people. They are worried about the safety of their leaders, political and
social workers. He said even Baloch children and women are not safe in their own motherland, recently Pakistani
army have arrested women and children in Sibi area of Balochistan and no body know about their whereabouts.”
Mr Raheem Baloch of Balochistan peoples’ Party said that a dictator was usurping the democratic rights of
Baloch people. “We will not tolerate the plundering of our natural resources and killing of our people. Pakistani
government is committing flagrant violation of human rights. World community should take notice of these
violations and stop Pakistani military from committing heinous crimes against the Baloch Nation.”
Qader Bux Jatoi said that there had never been true democracy in Pakistan. “The country has always been under
control of the military that has been usurping the democratic rights of the people. They have reduced the Baloch
and the Sindhi to a status of second-class citizens. Todays demonstration is aimed at drawing the attention of
world community toward violations of human rights being committed by government of Pakistan in Sindh and
Balochistan.”
Jamshed Amiri said that the Pakistan is one of the biggest supporters of the extremism and Taliban. “All the so-
called war on terror is being fight against the secular and democratic people of Balochistan. We have been
warning the international community and the US in particular that do not support Pakistan in any way, because this
war on terror is nothing but a drama and an excuse of Pakistan to grab money from international community.”
Mr Samander Askani who had travelled form Sweden to attend the protest said Baloch must unite no matter
where they live in the world. “We must support our Baloch brothers and sisters back at home. We should support
those who are sacrificing their lives for the better future of Balochistan and Baloch Nation. He said this is our last
chance to save our motherland and to get rid of Punjabi slavery once and for the last time. He congratulated the
Baloch and Sindhi activists for organising the successful demonstration on behalf of Radio Balochi Sweden.”
Noordin Mengal, Ghulam Hussain Baloch of Greater Balochistan National Congress, and Agha Marzooq Ali also
spoke at the demonstration. Cllr Mushtaq Lashari and Raja Faiz Sultan attend the demo to show solider with
Baloch and Sindhi people. Earlier the demonstrators holding play cards and banners inscribed with slogans
against General Musharraf, ISI and Pakistani Military, demanded an end to military operation, release of all Baloch
political leaders and workers of Sindh and Balochistan. Many play cards were inscribed urging the International
Community to hold an inquiry into Human Right violation by Pakistani Army. Meanwhile demonstrators got very
furious when a bunch of pro-pakistan (paid agent of military) tried to disturb the demonstration. Furious Baloch
and Sindhi demonstrators chanted slogan like “Down with pakistan, Death to Pakistan, Pakistan Army leave
Balochistan and We want Freedom etc. Some Baloch activists snatch the Pakistani flag, form them, and throw it
on the road while others crushed it under their feet. The situation turned tense and the police had to intervene. The
police stationed at the US embassy immediately summoned more police men. Seeing more police the pakistani
trouble maker fled away.
