“Shahmiren
Balochaane Roch' 15 July”
“The Baluch Martyrs Day 15 July”
“Martyrs of Balochistan and
Victims of State Terrorism”
Baloch, like many other nations,
in their struggle for freedom
and democratic rights have
endured great sacrifices. In
their endeavour to achieve these
aims many have encountered and
experienced the wrath of the
occupying states. In
consequence, many Baloch men,
women and children in their
struggle for their democratic
rights including right to
FREEDOM have been treated
violently and inhumanly by the
military and the intelligence
services of these occupying
states. The very harsh treatment
of Baloch people is well
recorded, particularly by states
such as Pakistan and Iran. Since
their illegal occupation of
Balochistan these states have
been involved in the systematic
imprisonment, torture, abduction
and execution of Baloch.
Currently thousands of Baloch
are missing from Pakistani
occupied Balochistan; tens of
thousands have been displaced.
Similarly hundreds of Baloch
have been executed by the
Iranian regime in Western
Balochistan and several are on
death row waiting to be
executed.
In tribute to sacrifices of the
Baloch Martyrs the Baloch
community in London have decided
to hold a day of remembrance for
these victims. The 15th
of July of every year is the
date designated for the purpose
of remembrance, to make
sure that their sacrifice for
our freedom and our nation has
not been lost in vain.
The day is nominated for
“Martyrs of Balochistan and
Victims of State Terrorism.” On
this day there will also be an
exhibition of pictures, names,
and a brief description on the
background of each victim.
The actual day that this
Remembrance Day will take place
in London is on Sunday
19th July 2009. The Remembrance
Day starts from 12 noon to 5pm
at:
THE CENTRE FOR POLISH
ART AND CULTURE
238 – 246 KINGS STREET,
HAMMERSMITH
LONDON W6 0RF
Closest Tube station:
