Afghanistan, Pashtun diaspora members demonstrate against Pakistan in Vienna
Afghan Cultural Association (AKIS) and Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM) demonstrated outside the Pakistan Embassy in Vienna recently.
The demonstrators protested against the illegal arrest of the head and co-founder of the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement, Manzoor Ahmed Pashteen and the forced deportation of Afghan refugees from Pakistan.
Around 25 people from the Afghan community participated in this protest, which happened from 12:00 to 14:00 hours today, ANI reported.
Satori Khan, who is the head of the PTM wing in Austria, told the Indian news agency that there is no justice for Pashtuns in Pakistan. Pashtuns are persecuted in Pakistan due to their ethnicity and are now forcefully deported.
Ghossudin Mir, the head of the Afghan Cultural Association in Vienna, told ANI the Pakistani army and ISI are responsible for the ethnic cleansing in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
He mentioned that Pakistan always acts against the interests of the Afghan people.
Protesters also raised slogans against the Pakistani government during the demonstration.
