The organisers of Peshawar’s first ever women’s bicycle rally cancelled the event on Friday amidst threats posed by religious parties against what they termed as an event meant to “spread obscenityâ€, according to reports.
The ‘peace rally’, organised by women’s rights organisation Zama Jawandoon, was scheduled for January 19 and at least 35 women were set to participate in the event. Members of the transgender community were also invited to join the rally.
