Balochisthan Freedom Movement Reaches London

London, Nov 14: In yet another move to achieve freedom for Balochistan the World Baloch Organisation has launched the third phase of its independence movement.

The World Baloch organization has started an advertising campaign # Free Balochistan and the buses in London are carrying adverts that say "Free Balochistan", "Save The Baloch People" and "Stop Enforced Disappearances".

Bhawal Mengal, spokesperson for the World Baloch Organisation (WBO) has said "this is the third phase of our London campaign to raise awareness about Pakistan's human right abuses in Balochistan and the right of the Baloch people to self-determination. We started with taxi adverts, then did roadside billboards and now we are advertising on London buses. "



He added that "The attempts by the Pakistan government to pressure the UK to ban our adverts have failed. The campaign is powering ahead and will continue for weeks to come. The bullying tactics of Pakistan are an attack on freedom of expression. They are an anti-democratic bid to censor the voice of the Baloch people and cover up the war crimes of the Pakistan Army in Balochistan. This is a peaceful advertising campaign. Pakistan's aggressive reaction is a bare-faced attempt to intimidate the UK Government and Baloch human rights defenders."


The campaign has received a huge response and the organizers have said that they would advertise the campaign in other parts of the world soon. Earlier the Indian Prime Minister during one of his independent speech address from the redfort has raised this issue and spoke about the atrocities against the people that were committed by Pakistani Army.
