Let us honour his legacy of compassion and unparalleled solidarity for the oppressed and persecuted.

Let us make peace and build instead of break down and destroy. #MandelaDay

Military falsely accuse Mahal for keeping weapons and explosives. The brutal abduction of Mahal Baloch is example of the seven decades of state-sponsored terrorism in Balochistan. Washington Group condemns this extra judicial incident and ask the Supreme Court to immediate action

We believe that diversion of Indus, which is several times larger than Kishanganga, will cause similar problems at larger scale. The international community should pressure….

His remaining children and some other relatives are still locked up in the private prison. Washington Group condemns the brutality and extra judicial killing of freedom loving Baloch and demands that the government initiate investigation into the matter and prosecute the killers.
