After 15 years, 4 months, and 27 days, the hunger strike camp by the Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) continues to shed light on the grim reality of enforced disappearances and systematic oppression under Pak-occupied-Balochistan. Activists Bilal Notezai, Maheem Khan, Shams Samalani, Doda Khan and Advocate Farzana recently joined the camp to express solidarity with the families of the forcibly disappeared—a powerful stand against the occupied-state’s ruthless tactics of silencing Baloch voice.
Mama Qadeer Baloch, Vice Chairman of VBMP, condemned Pakistan Army for intensifying its terror-driven operations across POB, calling it a systematic campaign of genocide against the Baloch people. He highlighted regions like Khuzdar, Awaran Nal, Greshag, Bolan, and Sibi, where the Pak Army, alongside local agents has accelerated abductions of Baloch youth, especially in Karachi. This “enforced disappearance” strategy has become a hallmark of the Paki regimes’s efforts to erase Baloch identity and resistance.
5,622 Days and Counting
Qadeer Baloch’s remarks underscored Pakistan’s utter disregard for international laws and human rights. Despite repeated violations and atrocities, he said, international organizations and human rights defenders remain shamefully silent, reducing their lofty claims to mere words. This silence has turned Pakistan’s systematic repression into a grim reality for POB, where the UN’s indifference has emboldened Pakistan’s military to act with unchecked brutality, rendering the concept of human rights meaningless in the region.
Under Pakistan’s iron-fisted rule, POB has become a territory beyond the reach of humanity—where enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and a relentless campaign of violence against the Baloch people paint a harrowing picture of life under occupation. The Army’s escalated terror activities in the name of “national security” are nothing but a cover for a Army-sanctioned assault on Baloch identity and rights.
