Jan 13, 2024..

Nine British Parliamentarians recently expressed support for a motion addressing the human rights situation in Balochistan, media reports said.


Labour MP John McDonnell tabled the motion on December 19 last year.

It commends the bravery of Baloch women leading a march to Islamabad in protest against enforced disappearances, abductions, and killings associated with the operations of Pakistan’s Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) in Balochistan, reported Balochistan Post.

According to reports, the motion received backing from various MPs.

Co-sponsors included Rachael Maskell (former UK Shadow Minister of Defence), Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party), Labour MPs Mary Kelly Foy and Nadia Whittome, and Alison Thewliss (Scottish National Party), the Balochistan-based news portal reported.

The motion calls on the UK government to express its concerns about the violation of fundamental human rights in Balochistan and the violent attacks on Baloch protesters by the police to the Pakistani government, the news portal reported.
