Around 30 activists from the Labour Party Pakistan (LPP), Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI) and International Socialists on Wednesday protested outside the Lahore Press Club in support of Baba Jan and four other activists imprisoned in Gilgit-Baltistan since August 2011.

They demanded fair compensation for the people affected by the Attabad lake disaster. They demanded that the terrorism charges pressed against Baba Jan and the four other political activists, known as Hunza Five, be dropped and they be released.
