Balochistan, a region plagued by the haunting spectre of enforced disappearances, continues to grapple with this harrowing reality that has persisted for the past two decades. Allegations directed towards Pakistani intelligence agencies and security forces, coming from Baloch nationalists, activists, and human rights organizations, point towards their involvement in these abductions and extrajudicial killings. While the Pakistani government consistently denies any complicity, mounting evidence presented by these groups suggests a different narrative.

A comprehensive investigation undertaken by The Balochistan Post (TBP) sheds light on the state of enforced disappearances during the first two weeks of June, revealing the following:

Unveiling the Truth

Within this critical period, TBP meticulously documented a series of cases concerning enforced disappearances reported from various regions across Balochistan. The collected accounts provide a grim insight into the severity of the situation, with a staggering 23 individuals vanishing under suspicious circumstances. However, amidst this disheartening scenario, there is a glimmer of hope, as four of the disappeared individuals were released, finding their way back to the safety of their homes.

Tragic Discoveries

Regrettably, the search for the missing persons did not conclude with joyful reunions. During this distressing fortnight, six lifeless bodies were discovered, adding to the growing toll of lives lost under mysterious circumstances. Among the 23 disappeared individuals, there were three individuals who had actually been abducted five months ago, but their families had refrained from reporting their disappearance until now, further exacerbating the complexity of these cases.

These revelations serve as a continuation of the earlier report that encompassed the last two weeks of May 2023, providing an ongoing account of the alarming situation in Balochistan. The persistence of enforced disappearances, coupled with the consistent denial of involvement by the Pakistani government, calls for heightened attention from international bodies and the urgent need for a comprehensive resolution to address this human rights crisis.

Enforced disappearances were reported in the following areas:

  • Zehri: 6
  • Noshki: 4
  • Turbat: 3
  • Panjgur: 3
  • Awaran: 2
  • Khuzdar City: 2
  • Bolan: 1
  • Quetta: 1

Additionally, six dead bodies were also discovered:

  • Bolan: 3
  • Turbat: 2
  • Panjgur: 1
