World Cup 2019: Haris Sohail smashed a rapid-fire 89 to help Pakistan secure a 49-run win at Lord's against South Africa. While the match ended on a good note for the Pakistani cricket fans, they were not happy with the posters outside the stadium.

Baloch activists - who claim that Pakistan government is guilty of ignoring the needs and aspirations of locals in Balochistan - had put up a number of posters in London. Some of the posters were also seen outside the iconic Lord's stadium which forced Pakistani fans to tear them apart.

The Pakistan Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa was watching the match along with other officials in the stadium. The angry fans also shouted slogans "Long Live Pakistan Army".

Baloch Republican Party and World Baloch Organisation were organising a protest to highlight the pathetic human rights condition in Pakistan.

The billboards around the city of London read, "Help end enforced disappearances in Pakistan".

Even in the past, public advertisement spaces were rented in London and other parts of England to put up these posters which decry the situation in Balochistan.

In 2017, Pakistan registered a strong objection to 'Free Balochistan' posters on public buses and taxis in London. This was shot down by the United Kingdom's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).

"I have informed the complainant that we will not pursue the matter because, based on the facts available to us, there doesn't seem to be a breach of the UK Code of Non-Broadcasting Advertising (CAP Code)," read a letter from ASA's Complaint Executive.

Not just England, Baloch activists have also taken their campaign with banners and posters in Geneva as well.
