Popular actor Musharraf Karim came and expressed solidarity at the event’s last minute. He said there is no opportunity to sit at home in this situation. We are for all people. We don’t want to see any blood. We want peace. Besides, Sabila Noor also wants justice for those who were killed. At the same time, he demanded the release of all those arrested.
