Holding placards and banners, the participants of the protest gathering chanted slogans against the Indian attrocities in Occupied Kashmir. They also raised their vice in favour of oppressed Kashmiris struggling for their right to self-determination.

On the occasion of the protest, Chairman Kashmir Council Europe (KC-EU) Mr Ali Raza Syed said, purpose of our protest is to raise our voice against Indian brutalities on Kashmiris.

According to him, India is involved in the extreme atrocities against Kashmiris. Indian state terrorism against the people of Occupied Kashmir has been increased over the past few years and due to this, the oppressed Kashmiris are suffering from various problems and important political leaders and human rights activists are detained and imprisoned in the Indian jails. India is committing genocide of Kashmiris on a large scale and trying to erase the identity of Kashmiris by changing the population ratio in the occupied Kashmir valley.

Ali Raza Syed determined that the peaceful struggle for liberation of Kashmir would be continued.

He called for immediate international attention on the existing situation in Indian occupied Kashmir. Chair of KC-EU particularly urged the international community to stop Indian state terrorism and human rights violations in occupied Kashmir and play its effective role for a just and peaceful resolution of the Kashmir issue.

Other speakers also condemned the atrocities against Kashmiri people and constant occupation of the large parts of Jammu and Kashmir by the Indian forces. They called for end of human rights violations in occupied Kashmir and end of the illegal occupation.
