A man forcefully disappeared after two days of his son’s abduction from Awaran district of Balochistan on Thursday
According to details received by The Balochistan Post, a man was arrested and moved to an undisclosed location by Pakistani forces on a checkpoint while he was traveling from Karachi to Awaran on 20 December.
Abductee has been identified as Gamshad s/o Lewari resident of Malar Kark Dhal area of district Awaran.
According to local reports, two days earlier Gamshad’s son, Sudeer Ahmed was also abducted by Pakistani forces from his home town, Malar Kark Dhal.
The term abducted is widely used in Balochistan to connote arrests made by security forces as the arrested are not presented before the court of law and instead kept in military camps.
According to Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP), the campaign group by families of victims, more than 40,000 Baloch men, women, and children are under Pakistani custody.
Amnesty international and campaign groups in Pakistan have criticized Pakistan’s secret agencies of abduction-styled-arrests and detaining people extra-judicially.
