Sindhi Foundation continues campaign to ensure freedom of Pakistani enforced disappearance victim Priya Kumari

Washington-based Sindhi Foundation will continue its campaign to ensure the freedom of Pakistani-enforced disappearance victim Priya Kumari.

The campaign, which has gained significant traction, is set to hold its fifth protest in front of the Pakistani Consulate in Houston, Texas, on August 19, 2024, reported ANI.

Sufi Munawar Laghari, a prominent voice within the Sindhi Foundation, told the news agency, “Today is August 14th, Independence Day for Pakistanis, but not for Sindhis. We are not Pakistani; we are Sindhis. Our Sindh is occupied by Pakistani Punjab, and our daughters and sons are stolen.”

He emphasised that Priya Kumari’s abduction on August 19, 2021, exemplifies the plight of many Sindhis who have been forcibly disappeared.

Earlier, demonstrations were held in Toronto, Canada; London, United Kingdom; Geneva, Switzerland; and Chicago, United States.
