The FBM staged a protest rally in Germany on Human Rights Day

Berlin: The Free Balochistan Movement Germany Branch staged a protest in front of the Central Railway Station in Berlin, the capital of Germany on the occasion of International Human Rights Day on Friday, December 10.

After gathering outside the station protester marched towards the German Parliament passing through various streets. The protesters distributed hundreds of leaflets and spoke with several passersby during their march and informed them about ongoing human rights violations in Balochistan.  

 The Free Balochistan Movement in its statement to the media said that the party will continue its efforts to expose Iranian and Pakistan state crimes including executions, target killings, enforced disappearances, ongoing military operations and Iran and Pakistan’s attempts to demographic changes by either settling non-Baloch or further dividing Balochistan.

Demonstrators carried banners and placards and chanted slogans against the ongoing barbarism of Pakistan and Iran in Balochistan. They urged the UN and other Human Rights Organisations to ‘break their silence’ on blatant violations of human rights of the Baloch people.

The protesters held a demonstration outside the German Parliament where various speakers including Mohammad Baloch, Razieh Dorrazei, Khudadad Baloch, Beebagr Baloch and Behzat Baloch addressed the participants of the march.

The speakers said that Pakistan and Iran have been involved in crimes against humanity in occupied Balochistan for the last several decades. Both occupying states are disappearing and killings Baloch men, women, youth and elderly. Such crimes are obvious violations of international laws and UN conventions, the FBM speakers said.

The speakers further said that to deprive the Baloch economically, Iran and Pakistan have erected a fence on the Goldsmith Line and completely closed the movement on both sides.

They said the military aggressions continue unabated in occupied Balochistan causing the loss of hundreds of innocent lives to date. The victims of Pakistani and Iranian state brutalities include women and children, the speakers emphasised.

The speakers appealed to the United Nations, the European Union and other Human Rights Organisations that it was their responsibility to support the Baloch in raising their voice against Iran and Pakistan’s state atrocities.
