This month or earlier, 14 victims of enforced disappearance were released after being subjected to extreme psychological and physical suffering.
According to the report, the Pakistani army is taking forced labor from the IDPs returning to their’s area in Koharo a village of Jhahu tehsil of Awaran district to build helipads and military camps. The video evidence of this was obtained by Paank and published on social media.
