Toronto (Canada), May 13 (ANI): The Pashtun Council of Canada staged a protest outside the Consulate General of Pakistan in Toronto to show their solidarity with the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM) and urged the Government of Pakistan to release PTM workers. The protesters chanted anti-Pakistan slogans such as "Yeh Jo Dehsht Gardi Hey, is ke piechey verdi hey." they also claimed that around 150 PTM activists were arrested before this protest. The PTM was started by young Pashtun activists in 2014, who are demanding an end to what they say are human rights violations by authorities in the Pakistan's tribal regions. The leaders have been calling for the removal of military checkpoints in tribal areas and an end to "enforced disappearances" in which suspects are detained by security forces without due process.
