BRSO, BRP pay tribute to late Shaheed Akbar Khan Bugti, hold protest against Pak

The Baloch Republican Students Organisation (BRSO) and the Baloch Republican Party (BRP) held a protest demonstration in Berlin, Germany in a bid to highlight the war crime prepetrated by Pakistan in Balochistan.

The protest demonstration was more of an awareness campaign, also held in the capital city of Brandenburg.

Apart from highlighting the war crimes committed by the Pakistani state, the campaign was also aimed at paying tribute to father of nation Shaheed Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti on his 11th Martyrdom Anniversary (August 26).

On the occasion, several events were held in Balochistan and across the world.

Abdul Nawaz Bugti, the representative of the Baloch Republican Party at the UNHRC, took to Twitter to pay his tribute to Akbar Khan Bugti.

"You can kill a man but not his ideology. Father of nation #ShaheedNawabAbarBugti martyred 11 years ago. His ideology continues to lead us," he tweeted.

"I bow down to pay homage to the legend, father of the nation #ShaheedNawabAkbarBugti who taught us to stand up, fight & die for our rights."

"BRP & BRSO activists around the world paying tribute to father of nation #ShaheedNawabAkbarBugti. We will continue his struggle till victory," he tweeted further.

"Thanks to American Friends of #Balochistan for organizing an event to remember & pay tribute to father of the nation #ShaheedNawabAkbarBugti"

Brahumdagh Bugti, the president of the Baloch Republican Party, also tweeted, "Baloch Republican Students Organization @THE_BRSO held a protest in Germany to highlight human right violations in Balochistan by pak Army."

Earlier on August 19, BRP activist Abdul Bugti had urged Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg to cancel her meeting with Pakistan's former military dictator Pervez Musharraf.

"We appeal and request Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg to cancel her meeting with the ex dictator (Pervez Musharraf)," Bugti said.

He said Musharraf was a war criminal, who was absconding from the courts of his own country on serious charges of treason, murder and assassination of Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti.

Bugti also called Musharraf as 'butcher of Balochistan', who killed thousands of civilians during his rule including Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti.

He also alleged that Musharraf has no regrets and remorse of what he did to the Baloch people.

Musharraf was also heckled by Baloch activists at the 'Dialogue for Peace' event organised by Nobel Peace Center in Oslo.

The event was cancelled midway after the Baloch activists staged a protest over extending invite to Musharraf as a speaker.

The Baloch activists labelled Musharraf as 'Butcher of Balochistan' and 'Butcher of Baloch' during the event.
