To raise awareness about @ImaanZHazir and @AdvHadiali , and their inspiring work, we launched a series of campaigns, including a postcard initiative where Norwegian high school students wrote encouraging letters to Imaan. Listen to some of them in this video.

🚨Pakistan security forces raided the home of WHRD Sammi Deen Baloch in Karachi.

FLD strongly condemns the targeting of the defender and believes the raid is a direct reprisal for her peaceful human rights work.

Sammi Deen is a peaceful activist who has only advocated for the return of her father. Anyone who has lost a father can empathize, you would demand they be returned till the end of time. Raiding her home is an absolutely condemnable act.

Yet today, national and international media outlets praise Pakistan for its role in promoting dialogue and reducing tensions between the United States and Iran. And the very state that claims to promote dialogue abroad remains unwilling to have dialogue with peaceful protesters demanding answers about the fate of their missing loved ones.
My mother, who is living the life of a half widow for the last 17 years, watched these reports on television. “My heart aches for Iran. I want its people’s suffering to end,” she said with a sigh. “But if Pakistan is allowed to become the face of peace there, I fear it will keep crushing us here, then smile before the world and say: how can we be oppressors when we are peacemakers?”

Family killed and injured by CTD travelling from Karachi to Quetta, and the so-called government hid the Firing incident for two days.

UPDATE: The doors to Sammi’s home, the bedrooms doors, cabinets and cupboards have all been broken. Reportedly, police and intelligence officials have just left her residence with many of the family’s possessions after conducting an illegal raid that lasted almost two hours.

Pakistan Wants the World to See It as a Peacemaker. I Want It to Find My Father.

In @Diplomat_APAC, I write about what it means to spend seventeen years waiting for someone you are not even allowed to mourn and what that kind of cruelty does to a human being.

Chief Minister Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah and PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari: I demand your immediate explanation. Just now, law enforcement personnel and intelligence officials raided my family home without my knowledge or presence. If this has been carried out under your government, you owe the public an explanation. If it has not, then you have a responsibility to explain who is operating with such impunity in Sindh.

This follows repeated visits to our home over the past week, amounting to a sustained pattern of intimidation and harassment directed at me and my family.

My family home has been empty for the past two days. During that time, police and intelligence personnel have repeatedly come to the property, arriving in approximately fifteen vehicles and harassing my neighbours.

I am placing on public record my grave concern over this unlawful intrusion. Any unauthorized entry into my home raises serious fears about my family’s safety, the integrity of our property, and the possibility that evidence could be planted, surveillance devices installed, or my residence otherwise compromised in an attempt to fabricate allegations against me or malign my name. Given the continued harassment of human rights defenders, these are not abstract fears.

I demand immediate answers. Which agency entered my family’s home? Under whose authority was this operation carried out? Was there any warrant authorizing this raid? If so, it must be produced without delay. If there are any allegations against me, the law provides clear legal procedures. Secretive raids, repeated visits, and unlawful intrusions into my family’s residence are not among them.

My family’s home is not a crime scene. It is not a place where state institutions can enter at will, intimidate our neighbours, or conduct unexplained operations without accountability.

I am also placing this on record: if anything is removed from my family’s home, if anything is later claimed to have been recovered from it, or if any case is built against me on the basis of evidence allegedly found there following today’s illegal intrusion, I will hold the authorities fully responsible. I likewise hold them responsible for my family’s safety, for any damage to our property, and for anything that may subsequently happen to our home as a consequence of today’s unlawful entry.

At the time of his disappearance, his daughters Sammi Deen and Mehlab Baloch were seven and ten years respectively. Today, they have the same questions they had 17 years ago.

Deen Muhammad’s case is not isolated; families across Pakistan await answers as their loved ones remain forcibly disappeared for months, years, and decades.

Amnesty International joins Deen Muhammad’s family in demanding that the Pakistani authorities reveal his fate and whereabouts, along with the fate of all those forcibly disappeared. Further, a thorough, transparent, and independent investigation must be conducted to hold those responsible accountable.

🚨17 years after the enforced disappearance of Dr Deen Mohammed Baloch, his fate remains unknown.

PAKISTAN: Today marks 17 years since the enforced disappearance of Deen Muhammad Baloch, who was taken from his place of work, Khuzdar Civil Hospital, on 28 June 2009. Despite repeated petitions to the courts, appeals to authorities, and tireless advocacy by his family, his whereabouts remain unknown.

Baloch human rights activist Mahrang Baloch has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for the second time, according to the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC).

The announcement comes just days after a Pakistani Anti-Terrorism Court sentenced Mahrang and three other activists to life imprisonment in a case related to the killing of a Frontier Corps official. The verdict has drawn widespread international criticism, while her Nobel nomination has renewed global attention on the Baloch rights movement.

Please read this important investigative report by @HazaranRahim and @sommulbaloch to better understand the reality of enforced disappearances and the human rights crisis in Balochistan.

[Sammi Deen Baloch @SammiBaluch]

This video should have been recorded tomorrow, on the seventeenth year of my Father’s enforced disappearance. Instead, I am recording it today because for the last month and as recently as yesterday, I am being threatened with imprisonment. Seventeen years after they disappeared my father, I am still being forced to live in the shadow of the repression that stole him from us.
