Human Rights Violations in Balochistan
In Balochistan, Pakistan, the human rights organization Paank has condemned the alarming trend of enforced disappearances, illegal detentions, and torture of civilians. Recently, in a grave incident in Parom, Panjgur, reports indicate that Azim, the son of Jaro, was abducted from his home by a so-called “state-backed death squad,” highlighting the urgent need for attention to these abuses.
Abduction and Systematic Repression
According to Paank, Azim faced severe torture before being released. The organization claims the death squad, led by Bijjar Shambeyzai and supported by the Pakistan Army, perpetrates these acts as part of a broader campaign against the Baloch population, where such violations have become routine. The body expressed deep concern over the impunity enjoyed by those committing these atrocities, stating it “demands urgent international attention.”
Reports on Baloch Genocide
Alongside Paank’s revelations, the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) has released detailed reports during the Baloch Genocide Remembrance Day, outlining the dire situation in Balochistan. The BYC’s findings reveal extensive human rights abuses occurring across the region, aiming to raise global awareness of the ongoing genocide against the Baloch people.
Call for Action
Human rights organizations in the area have reported that Pakistani forces are intensifying their actions to instill fear among the locals. These groups continue to urge an immediate cessation of forced disappearances and are demanding accountability from the authorities, stressing the seriousness of the situation.
According to Paank, the ongoing abduction and torture of Baloch civilians reflect systematic human rights violations in Balochistan. Reports indicate that Azim was taken by a state-backed squad. BYC’s genocide reports emphasize widespread abuses in the region. Human rights organizations call for immediate action against forced disappearances and for accountability from authorities.
The ongoing human rights violations in Balochistan reflect a systematic campaign of repression against the Baloch people. Recent abductions and torture incidents highlight the urgent need for international scrutiny and intervention. Organizations like Paank and BYC are working to shed light on these issues, calling for accountability and protection for the affected civilians.
