London, 30 August 2025 – Political and human rights activists gathered outside the UK Prime Minister’s residence at 10 Downing Street on Saturday to mark the International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances. The protest, organised by the Jeay Sindh Freedom Movement (JSFM), was joined by representatives of Sindhi, Baloch, Pashtoon, Pojk, and other oppressed nations under what they describe as “illegal Pakistani occupation”.

The demonstration drew participation from a broad coalition, including the Voice of Missing Persons Sindh, Balochistan National Movement (BNM), Baloch Republican Party (BRP), Pashtoon Tahafuz Movement (PTM) and the National Equality Party JKGBL.

Speeches and Memorandum Submission

A memorandum was formally submitted to the UK government, urging it to press Pakistan to end enforced disappearances and release missing persons. Protest leaders said the practice of enforced disappearances was being systematically used to silence political dissent and terrorise communities.
