ISLAMABAD: European Union Ambassador to Pakistan, Riina Kionka, on Friday, expressed “deep” concerns over the reports of mishandling of Baloch protesters in Islamabad.

The EU ambassador to Pakistan took to the social media platform, X, to express her concerns over the reports of Islamabad’s police action against participants of the “Baloch long-march” in the early hours of Thursday.

“Deeply worried by reports of mishandling at #BalochLongMarch2Islamabad. Freedoms of expression, assembly and association guaranteed in articles 19, 21 & 22, resp, of the International Covenant on Civil & and Political Rights (ICCPR), a core measure of GSP+ implementation,” she said in post on X.

She added that Pakistan is party to the ICCPR.

Earlier, Islamabad police took action against Baloch protesters - participants of “Baloch long-march” - who came all the way from Balochistan to the federal capital to stage a sit-in at D-Chowk in protest against the incidents of enforced disappearances in the province.

Videos of the police action went viral soon after the police action — arresting and forcefully sending them back to Balochistan.

Mr. Mind your own business we know how to handle them. You remember for Baloch only may be they are more oppressed but trust every segment of society is mishandled badly by our so called rulers
