In Kalat, Pak Army have reportedly made three individuals disappear after taking them into custody. The missing persons have been identified as Abdul Rahim son of Kannar Khan Lehri, Samandar Khan son of Pasand Khan Lehri, and 13-year-old Bebgar son of Din Muhammad Mengal. All three were traveling in a vehicle in the Makhi area of Kalat when they were detained by Pak forces and subsequently disappeared.
Recent reports from Pak-occupied-Balochistan show a disturbing trend of enforced disappearances, with multiple incidents occurring in rapid succession.
Meanwhile in Tump, Obaid Mirjalal Khan, the brother of BYC Kech activist Zubair Baloch, was abducted by Frontier Corps (FC) personnel from his house in Balicha. Reportedly around 1:30 AM, three vehicles carrying FC personnel raided the house of Jalal Baloch in Tump Balicha, forcibly disappearing his 18-year-old son, Obaid Baloch.
The family of Obaid Baloch has reported being subjected to violence and threats during the raid. They express concern that Army have initiated a systematic plan to kidnap young individuals in the region.
Since 1948, the region has been under Pak Army control, with them exploiting the resources and human rights abuses. Enforced disappearances, marginalization, and extrajudicial killings have been used as tools of oppression against the Baloch community.
