Mahrang Baloch, a prominent Balochistan human rights activist, has expressed grave concerns over the international community\u2019s silence regarding the atrocities faced by the Baloch community in Pakistan.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the \u2018Middle East and North Africa Youth Conference\u2019 (MENAYC) held in Beirut, Lebanon, Mahrang highlighted the issue of enforced disappearances, which she described as the worst tragedy afflicting the Baloch people.<\/p>\n
In her video message, Mahrang accused the Pakistani army and secret agencies of staging these incidents, primarily targeting youths as they often voiced against the administration. \u201cBalochistan is the region with the highest number of enforced disappearances in the world,\u201d she stated, adding that the number has grown to thousands over the past two decades.<\/p>\n
Mahrang narrated distressing stories of families shattered by forced disappearances, leaving numerous women and children in a state of uncertainty, not knowing whether their loved ones were alive or dead. She unveiled her own personal sorrow, detailing how her father\u2019s disfigured body was <\/span>dumped in a <\/span>remote forest following his enforced disappearance and <\/span>torture.<\/span><\/p>\n The activist\u2019s plea comes amidst ongoing protests and sit-ins organised by families of forcibly disappeared individuals in Balochistan. In Khuzdar, the families of Anees Baloch and Nazeer Ahmed Baloch have blocked major roads, demanding their safe release.<\/span><\/p>\n The Baloch People\u2019s Congress (BPC), a political organization advocating for Baloch rights, has condemned the violence inflicted by Pakistan\u2019s \u201cPunjabi army\u201d against peaceful protesters in Chaman. The border town remains tense as violent demonstrations and confrontations between protesters and law enforcement continue for the third consecutive day.<\/span><\/p>\n Mahrang Baloch\u2019s call for international attention and action has shed light on the grave human rights violations occurring in Balochistan, urging human rights organisations and the global community to raise their voices against the oppression faced by the Baloch people.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
