Naz extends our deepest sympathies and outrage at the brutal murder of 28-year-old Mad Sandhu, a prominent Punjabi LGBT+ influencer, in Amritsar over the weekend.
Every time people say we have arrived and that there is LGTBQ+ equality, please remember the fragility of our human rights. To commit such a vile act of cowardice in one of India's holiest cities is devastating but let us be clear: we will not live in purdah, no matter how much some may wish to silence us. Naz calls on everyone to add their voice in demanding justice for Mad Sandhu and to stand firm for the fundamental right of living safely and openly.
To find community, support, and solidarity, join us at our monthly Dost group on the first Tuesday of every month in W6, or connect with us at the upcoming Kali Kiss group meeting on the 8th of October at the Southbank Centre.
