A teacher, a sixty-year-old man and dozen others have been allegedly ‘abducted’ by Pakistani security forces from different areas of Balochistan.
According to the details received by The Balochistan Post (TBP), an elderly man, aged 60, was picked up by the forces along with another man during a raid in Jatani Bazar of Dasht town.
TBP received the identification of both men as: Murad Jan s/o Muhmmad and Bilawal s/o Abdul Ghafoor.
Moreover, a school teacher, identified as Master Mumtaz s/o Master Akbar, was arrested and taken away near a security check post in Ghanna town of Kech district. Master Mumtaz was resident of area known as Khair Abad.
Meanwhile, a fresh military operation is underway in Bolan.
According to TBP’s local correspondent, more than 10 people have been arrested and taken away by Pakistani security forces during fresh raids conducted in different areas of Bolan.
Enforced disappearances that started in the early 2000s have never slowed down in Balochistan, in fact, dramatic surge has been observed in the number of people going missing with each coming year.
International campaign groups including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International accuse Pakistani security forces as the culprits of these illegal abductions.
