JSSF (JSMM) is the student wing of various
Sindhudesh movement organizations following the ideology of
G. M. Syed, founded in 1969. On 4 March 1967, a procession of students marched from the
University of Sindh,
Jamshoro campus, to
Hyderabad. While the procession was on its way to the Hyderabad from Jamshoro, the police used force against the protesters, injuring 17 of them and arresting 200. This prompted the students to found the JSSF, which recognize 4 March 1967 as the "day of the student struggle of Sindh". Five JSSF members were shot and killed by the security forces at Thori Phatak, near Manjhand, district Jamshoro, on 17 October 1984, when they were on their way to
Larkana. JSSF leader Asif Panhwar was found dead by gunshots in
Larkana on 26 November 2014. It was alleged that he had been taken by police and plain-clothed men from
Hyderabad on 15 August 2014. Another JSSF leader, Shakeel Khunharo was taken on 6 October 2014 and later found dead along a roadside near Karachi. Hafeez Pirzado, the current chairman of the JSSF was sentenced a term of 37 years in prison on 12 August 2016 by Anti-Terrorism Court Larkana on the charges of treachery against the state of
Pakistan. He is imprisoned in the Central Jail,
