PFF plans drive against eviction of fishermen
The Pakistan Fisherfolk Forum (PFF), an organisation representing the fishermen community, has announced launching of a protest campaign on April 21 against the "excesses committed by the Defence Housing Authority to evict fishermen from their ancestral villages and deprive hundreds of them of their livelihood.' Speaking at a press conference at the Karachi Press Club on Thursday, PFF general secretary Saeed Baloch and other leaders said that the DHA administration was forcing the fishermen's community to abandon the make-shift jetty in Gizri Creek.
