HRCB stands with Zakir's family and calls for truth, justice, and his immediate recovery.

ایک بیمار طالبعلم کی جبری گمشدگی قانون، انصاف اور انسانی وقار کے خلاف ہے۔ ریاست کی ذمہ داری ہے کہ اسے عدالت میں پیش کرے، نہ کہ خاموشی میں چھپا دے۔

ہم فوری اور بحفاظت رہائی کا مطالبہ کرتے ہیں۔

During a raid on the home of Sardar Naseer Ahmed Moosani in Bulbul Zehri, the sanctity of the home was violated and his sons and close relatives were detained and taken to an undisclosed location. Among them was Sardarzada Khalil Ahmed Moosani, Senior Vice President of BNP Khuzdar and son of former District Chairman and Central Committee member Sardar Naseer Ahmed Moosani. Despite being injured, Khalil Ahmed Moosani was taken away by security forces, and his family was later informed to collect his body.

Mehrab Khalid, a filmmaking student, is the latest victim of enforced disappearance, reportedly taken by forces from Lahore. No profession, achievement, or distance offers protection. For Balochs, the reality remains the same: you can be picked up anywhere, at any time.

The Human Rights Council of Balochistan strongly condemns the enforced disappearance of Mehrab Khalid, a resident of Turbat, district Kech, and a Filmmaking student at the National College of Arts (NCA) Lahore.

He was taken away by Pakistani security forces on the night of 29 May at around 12:30 AM. Eight of his classmates were also detained and later released. Mehrab’s whereabouts remain unknown.

We demand his immediate and safe return, and full accountability for those responsible.

One year ago today, Mahjabeen Baloch, a 25-year-old Library Science student at the University of Balochistan and a polio survivor from Besima, Washuk, was forcibly disappeared.

On 29 May at 3 AM, police and plainclothes personnel abducted her from Civil Hospital Hostel, Quetta. Her whereabouts remain unknown to this day.

Her brother Younus was abducted from their home just five days earlier. He was tortured for months before being released.

We demand the immediate and safe return of Mahjabeen Baloch. If there are any allegations against her, produce her in a court of law — not in secret torture cells.

ہماری عیدیں سوگ اور ماتم کناں ہیں اس ریاست نے ہم سے ہماری خوشیاں چھین لی ہیں بغیر جرم بتائے گزشتہ آٹھ سالوں سےمیرے بھائیوں کو عقوبت خانوں میں بند کیا گیا ہے ہمیں نہیں پتا وہ کس حال میں ہیں اور یہاں حکمران انسانی اقتدار پر تقریریں کرتے نہیں تھکتے مگر انکے دور میں انسانی حقوق کی1/2

جبری لاپتہ صغیر بلوچ اور اقرار بلوچ کی ہمشیرہ نے وائس فار بلوچ مسنگ پرسنز (VBMP) کے زیر اہتمام عید کے روز کوئٹہ پریس کلب کے سامنے ہونے والے احتجاجی مظاہرے کے دوران اظہارِ خیال کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ ان کے بھائیوں کی عدم بازیابی کے باعث پورا خاندان شدید ذہنی دباؤ اور کرب کا شکار ہے.

PAKISTAN: Fareedullah Afridi, a member of the civil rights movement Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM), was abducted on the evening of 18 May 2026 from Peshawar city, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The police have refused to file any First Information Report nor conducted any investigation into his disappearance despite requests from the family.

Fareedullah Afridi, is not the first PTM activist to be abducted without a trace. Amnesty International is concerned that Fareedullah’s disappearance fits into a worrying pattern of enforced disappearance of PTM activists and crackdown by state authorities.

Pakistani authorities must urgently carry out an effective, independent and transparent investigation into Afridi’s abduction. If he is in custody of the authorities, his whereabouts should be disclosed, he must be released immediately, and those responsible for his disappearance be held accountable in line with international human rights standards.
