If Shabeer Baloch has committed any crime then bring him to the court of law, sister appealed
According to details received by The Balochistan Post, Seema Baloch held a press conference at Quetta Press Club on Thursday about her missing brother Shabeer Baloch.
Shabeer Baloch is a student and a Human Rights activist affiliated with a student organization, Baloch Students Organisation-Azad(BSO-A)
BSO-A is a student organization struggling for student rights and also supports the ideology of independence of Balochistan, due to which the organization was banned by the Pakistani government in 2013.
Seema Baloch in the press conference said that two years ago her brother Shabeer Baloch was abducted on 4th Oct 2016 in a raid by Pakistani security forces from Goarkop area of Turbat.
“After that, I spend most days of my life in front of press clubs, courts and in the offices of Rights organizations” She stated.
Seema Baloch in her press conference said that she had tried many times to file an FIR in police stations but they rejected to file Shabeer’s case. She further said that she had filed a petition in court and submitted her brother’s case to Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, Asian Human Rights Commission and Amnesty International where they demanded the government of Pakistan for the immediate release of Shabeer Baloch but still after two years her brother is missing.
She added that if Shabeer Baloch had committed any crime they should bring him before the court but keeping him in detention and torturing the family is a violation of the very basic human rights.
She hoped that the media, civil society and the judiciary would play their due role to recover her brother.
Balochistan is plagued by the enforced disappearances of Baloch youth and activists. However, recent instances of ‘women and children abductions’ have also been reported.
International campaign groups including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International accuse Pakistani security forces as the perpetrators of ‘illegal abductions in Balochistan’.
