Sindhi leader urges global action against Pakistan’s oppression of indigenous communitiesJSMM leader Shafi Burfat, in a letter to UNGA leaders, accused Pakistan of systemic oppression of Sindhis, Baloch, Pashtuns and others, urging global action against its policies of exploitation and suppression. “This concentration of power has turned Pakistan into a machinery of systemic oppression, where historical nations are subjected to extreme forms of modern-day slavery and political subjugation. Secular political parties, national movements, and civil society activists face state-imposed restrictions,” the letter detailed. The cultural heritage, languages, and histories of Pakistan’s indigenous nations are deliberately distorted or erased, reflecting a continuous campaign of state-sponsored authoritarianism and brutality,” it added. The JSMM leader asserted that Pakistan should be barred from speaking in any credible international forum for its crimes of supporting, training, and preparing extremist terrorists, and deploying them under state policy in the region.
