Killing Of Mohajir People In Pakistan

EDM number 2186 in 2010-12, proposed by Michael Connarty on 14/09/2011.
Categorised under the topics of Asia, Crimes of violence and International politics and government.

That this House is deeply concerned at continuing reports of the large-scale murder of Urdu-speaking Mohajir people in Karachi and Sind region in Pakistan, including shootings in broad daylight (such as five staff and engineers of the Karachi Water and Sewerage Board on 22 August 2011), kidnapping from buses and burning of property; is alarmed at the apparent lack of response from the police and the Pakistan government; and calls on the UK Government to raise concerns about such alleged ethnic cleansing with the government of Pakistan at the highest level as a matter of urgency.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
