26 June Protest .........Baluch Community Norway

United Nations has designated 26th June as the International Day against Torture. This day is designated to emphasize the importance of the right to personal dignity and security for all individuals around the world. It is the day to remember that each person’s rights are protected and guaranteed within the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.


Highlighting the significance of this day the former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said: "This is a day on which we pay our respects to those who have endured the unimaginable. This is an occasion for the world to speak up against the unspeakable. It is long overdue that a day be dedicated to remembering and supporting the many victims and survivors of torture around the world."


Like other occupied Nations around the world the Baluch people have also been facing torture, death, destruction, extra judicial killings and arrests and enforced disappearances since the illegal occupation of their motherland by the states of Iran and Pakistan. Both Islamic states have committed unprecedented atrocities in Baluchistan. Many hundreds of Baluch political activists have been tortured and killed under torture in detention. Those who have survived the ordeal are left with permanent emotional and physical disabilities.


At present around 8,000 Baluch political and student activists have been forcefully disappeared by Pakistani state intelligence agencies. Hundreds are behind bars for crimes they did not commit. The situation of the Baluch people is not any better under Iranian occupied Baluchistan. No single day goes by without arrest, imprisonment, torture and execution of a Baloch person.


To expose the atrocities of Iran and Pakistan against Baluch people the Baluch Community in Norway as decided to hold a protest on 26th June 2010, on the International Torture Day.


We cordially invite all human right organisations and other free born people to join our protest to express your opposition against any type of torture and to show your solidarity with the victims of torture.
