Meeting: The Baluch Martyrs Day 15 July 2009
“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: Hammersmith Station.
