Two residents of Balochistan’s Kech district were reportedly taken into custody by Pakistani security forces and moved to an undisclosed location, according to families of the missing men. The individuals have been identified as Yasir s/o Naimatullah and Sanaullah s/o Deen Mohammad, both residents of the Tump Sarenkan area.
Family members say Yasir was detained from his home around ten days ago. Sanaullah was detained at the Talar checkpoint on the same day. They report that no information regarding the whereabouts or condition of the two men has been received since their detention. According to relatives, Sanaullah had been returning from Karachi after receiving medical treatment when he was taken into custody.
The reports of new disappearances come as the protest camp of Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) continues its long-running demonstration against enforced disappearances. The camp, led by Chairman Nasrullah Baloch, marked its 6014th consecutive day on Saturday outside the Quetta Press Club.
People from various walks of life visited the camp and expressed solidarity with the families of the missing. Nasrullah Baloch stated that enforced disappearances violate national laws and fundamental human rights. He added that the organisation’s long and peaceful struggle aims to see Pakistan free of enforced disappearances.
He reiterated the organisation’s demands, including the safe recovery of all missing persons, the presentation of accused individuals before courts, an end to enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings, and legislation based on human dignity and constitutional principles to address the issue.
In a separate complaint received by the organisation, families from Dera Bugti alleged that Counter Terrorism Department personnel recently detained Sata Deen Bugti and Fazal Deen Bugti son of Peeral Bugti from the Matt area of Sui tehsil and moved them to an unknown location.
