A student who recently passed the Pakistan Public Service Commission (PCS) examination has reportedly been forcibly disappeared by security forces in Quetta, the capital of Balochistan.
The man has been identified as Nizam, son of Hassan, a resident of Mashkay.
According to local sources, Nizam was taken from his residence in A-One City, Quetta, on Monday afternoon. He was reportedly detained by Pakistani security personnel and has not been seen since.
Nizam, who worked part-time as a teacher at a private educational institution, had passed the PCS exam last year. His final interview for a government post was scheduled for 12 April.
Friends and colleagues described him as a talented and dedicated student with a longstanding involvement in the education sector.
No official statement has been issued regarding his whereabouts or the reason for his detention.
