The Baloch Republican Party (BRP) on Saturday held demonstrations outside the Pakistan Embassy in London against growing atrocities by the state's Army in Balochistan.

These atrocities include military operations, enforced disappearances and killings.

The main objective of the demonstration was to highlight the abduction of Baloch women at the hands of the Pakistan Army.

The protestors called on the International community to take immediate measures to stop the Pakistan Army and Intelligence Agencies from executing Baloch political activists.

Protesting BRP leader Mansoor Baloch alleged that the Pakistan and China nexus in Balochistan was causing death and destruction of the natives. He added that the so-called China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was against the will of the Baloch people and was unacceptable.

The protesting cavalcade headed to 10, Downing Street, the headquarters of the Government of the United Kingdom, from the Pakistan embassy.
