London Police Probing Pakistani Diplomat’s Throat-Slit Gesture at Indian-Origin Protesters
In a shocking incident, a Pakistani diplomat was caught on camera making a throat-slitting gesture at Indian-origin protesters outside the Pakistan High Commission in London. The protesters were gathered to express their outrage and solidarity with the victims of the recent Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage and calls for action from the British authorities. The Metropolitan Police in London have launched an investigation into the matter and are in touch with the relevant government department to determine what representations need to be made to the Pakistan High Commission.
The protesters, who were mainly composed of Indian-origin people living in the UK, were holding placards and chanting slogans condemning the terrorist attack that claimed the lives of several people in Pahalgam. The atmosphere was tense, with the protesters demanding justice for the victims and calling for an end to terrorism in the region.
It was during this tense standoff that Colonel Taimur Rahat, a Pakistani diplomat, appeared at the scene. He was seen making a throat-slitting gesture at the protesters, which was captured on camera by several onlookers. The incident has been widely condemned by human rights activists and politicians, who have called for the diplomat’s immediate expulsion from the UK.
“This is a blatant display of disrespect and aggression by the Pakistani diplomat,” said Ramesh Patel, a local activist who was part of the protest. “We demand that the British government takes immediate action to address this incident and ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future.”
The incident has also sparked a heated debate on social media, with many calling for the diplomat’s arrest and prosecution. “This is a serious offense and the diplomat should be held accountable,” tweeted @UKIndiaSolidarity. “The British government must take immediate action to address this incident and ensure that our security is not compromised.”
The Pakistan High Commission has so far refused to comment on the incident, but sources close to the commission have indicated that the diplomat has been summoned for a disciplinary hearing. The diplomat’s actions have been widely condemned by Pakistani expatriates living in the UK, who have called for his immediate expulsion from the country.
“This is a shameful display of behavior by the diplomat,” said Dr. Ahsan Rafique, a Pakistani expatriate living in London. “We condemn his actions and demand that the Pakistani government takes immediate action to address this incident and ensure that our diplomats behave in a civilized manner.”
The incident has also sparked concerns about the safety and security of Indian-origin people living in the UK. Many have taken to social media to express their concerns and demand greater protection from the British government.
“We are worried about our safety in the UK,” tweeted @IndianInUK. “We demand that the British government takes immediate action to address this incident and ensures our safety and security.”
The British government has so far refused to comment on the incident, but sources close to the government have indicated that an investigation is underway. The government has also urged calm and restraint from all parties involved in the incident.
“We are aware of the incident and are investigating the matter,” said a government spokesperson. “We urge all parties involved to remain calm and peaceful and to respect the law and order in the country.”
As the investigation continues, many are eagerly waiting to see what action will be taken against the Pakistani diplomat. Will he be expelled from the UK? Will he be charged with a crime? Only time will tell.
