London: A large number of Pashtuns, living in the UK and Europe, gathered outside the Pakistan Embassy in London and staged a protest raising slogans against the arrest of Manzoor Pashteen, a human rights activist and founder of Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM).

Manzoor Pashteen was taken into custody in Pakistan's Peshawar along with nine others belonging to his Pashtun Protection Movement on January 26.
