Thousands of People Attend Sarah Everard Vigil: Thousands of people are taking to the streets in London, UK. Restrictions due to Coronavirus Pandemic are not able to stop people. Here a woman named Sarah Everard was killed last week. People all over the world are shocked by this matter and once again concern is being expressed about the safety of women. Thousands of people had reached Saira’s memorial meeting. Saira, 33, was a marketing executive. She went missing on March 3 when she was walking from her friend’s house to her house on foot.
The biggest surprise is that the charge of kidnapping and killing Saira is also on the police officer itself. On Saturday, a large number of people gathered in Clapham Common to pay tribute to Saira. Even people had planned a nationwide Vigil from door to door, but it got postponed due to Corona virus epidemic. People are demanding to make the roads safe for women. At the same time, people are fiercely expressing their anger towards the police.
Clash between police and protesters
Initially, when people arrived here to pay tribute, it was normal, but when the police asked people to return to their homes, tension arose. There was a clash between the police and the protesters. Videos of the incident have also surfaced on social media, in which the police can be seen violently dragging female protesters and arresting them. Saira’s body was found in a builder’s bag on Wednesday from the woodland area of Ashford, Kent. The body was identified through dental records (Sarah Everard What Happened). The whole UK is in power due to this murder case. Women and girls are sharing experiences of violence perpetrated by men on social media.
The police waited for it to be dark
Campaign group Sisters Uncut said on Twitter, “Tonight thousands of women arrived at Clapham Common to mourn the death of the woman who was murdered by a male police officer when it was dark.” Today, male police officers have waited for the sun to rise before capturing women from the crowd and assaulting them (Sarah Everard News). On the activities of the police, Chief Opposition Labor Party member Syra Oven has said, ‘It is painful and heartbreaking to see. No one can see this scene and think that all this is being done so badly by the police. It should have been different or it could have happened.
