Yesterday, the Indian police prevented the protests of Afghan citizens in Delhi by arresting a number of protesters.
In response to the New Delhi Police, Amnesty International asked India on Twitter on Thursday (October 6th) to release the Afghan protesters.
Amnesty International has added that the protestors of the deadly attack on the Kaj Education Center were arrested by the Indian police despite having a permit to hold the protest.
The organization added: “First, any lack of permission or non-compliance with other administrative requirements should not declare an assembly illegal and should not be used as a basis for arresting protesters.”
According to this organization, protest is a human right, not a privilege, therefore any restrictions on this matter should be based on reasonable concerns about the place, time and manner of protest.
Indian media reported yesterday that the Delhi Police prevented Afghan citizens from holding protests against the deadly attack on Kaj Academy in Kabul and arrested a number of protesters.
