Kashmiri diaspora stages anti-Pakistan protest in Bradford, UK

On July 15, members of the Kashmiri diaspora gathered outside the Pakistani consulate in Bradford, United Kingdom, to protest alleged human‑rights violations in Pakistan‑occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). The demonstration was organised by the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) and featured placards and slogans accusing Pakistani security forces of killings, among other abuses, against civilians, including women and children.

Protesters urged the international community to note the alleged repression, called for a boycott of travel and tourism to Pakistan, asked people to avoid flying with Pakistan International Airlines, and appealed to the diaspora to suspend remittances to Pakistan. The rally is part of a broader campaign by Kashmiri diaspora groups across the UK to draw attention to the situation in PoJK.
