Four more civilians have been forcibly disappeared in Balochistan province, a leading human rights organisation said, raising fresh concerns over enforced disappearances by Pakistani authorities in the region. These latest incidents come against the backdrop of a growing wave of enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings across the province. Paank, the Baloch National Movement’s Human Rights Department, strongly condemned the enforced disappearance of a Baloch youth yesterday from the Joosak area of Turbat in the Kech district. Paank also revealed that a Baloch student was forcibly disappeared on March 31 from Turbat by Pakistan-backed death squads. In a separate case, another student was forcibly disappeared on March 28 by personnel of the Pakistani military from the Pasni area of Gwadar district in Balochistan. Additionally, the rights body said that one more student, identified as Sameer, was abducted on March 20 from Gwadar by Pakistani Military Intelligence.
