Several thousand supporters of an independent Kashmir protested in London against a curfew imposed on the region by India. [via AlJazeera: A presidential decree issued on August 5 revoked Article 370 of India's constitution that guaranteed special rights to the Muslim-majority state, including the right to its own constitution and autonomy to make laws on all matters except defense, communications and foreign affairs.
