According to the details received by the Balochistan Post, Pakistani forces picked up an elderly man during the search operation in Heronk town of Kech district on Saturday night.
 
The abducted man was identified as Balach S/O Mirza.
 
Locals told TBP that women and children were harassed and beaten during the operation.
 
It is pertinent to mention, abduction-styled-arrests are common in Balochistan during search operations by Pakistani forces, but detainees are not produced in front of the court and are detained at undisclosed locations.
 
Such arrested men are commonly called as Missing Persons, and rights campaigns have criticized Pakistan for such illegal practices in the past, but arrests have never stopped and a surge has been witnessed in the abductions this year.
