Mumbai: An Islamic organization in India is planning to hold a sit-in in the Old City on Thursday to protest the killings of Muslims in Myanmar, media reported on Wednesday.
According to reports, Darsgah-e-Jihad-O-Shahadat (DJS) president Mohammed Majid said “Hundreds of innocent Muslims are being tortured and killed in Burma. People across the globe should join hands to stop the excesses being committed in Burma.”
“The Centre and human rights groups should raise their voice against the killings of the Muslims by the Burmese military,” he said.
The protest would be staged near the Madina circle on Thursday afternoon, DJS sources said. However, police are likely to clamp down on the participants as the organization has not taken permission for holding the sit-in.
