Pakistan is committing atrocities against Baloch to appease China: Hyrbyair Marri.

LONDON: Baloch pro-freedom leader Hyrbyair Marri stated on Sunday said that the recent confessions of Pakistani officials confirms our concerns that Pakistan, with the help of China, is committing human rights violations in Balochistan.

In interview with Capital Talk on Geo TV, the retired Pakistani general Abdul Qadir Chanal, admitted that ‘China has started the economic corridor (CPEC) with massacre of those [Baloch] who oppose the Gawadar port.’ Mr Marri said that general Chanal’s admission ‘affirms our stand’ that China has urged Pakistan to crush the voices of those (Baloch) who are against China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.

He said that it was under an agreement with China to silence the Baloch resistance against CPEC. The Pakistani military has increased it repressions and brutalities in Balochistan, Pakistani forces are regularly killing innocent people, including women and children, and there is an increasing number of Baloch homes being destroyed.

“The Pakistani State representative, Home Secretary Balochistan Akbar Hussain Durrani, has also admitted that Pakistani forces abducted 12234 Baloch and killed 323 in Balochistan under the National Action Plan,” Mr Marri said. Adding that in fact, those Pakistani forces have extra-judicially killed thousands of Baloch and several thousands of Baloch have been arbitrarily arrested and disappeared. “The abduction and enforced-disappearances still continue across Balochistan,” Hyrbyair Marri stated.

The Baloch leader said that Pakistan was committing atrocities by ruthlessly killing Baloch people to appease China, because the Pakistani army is a hired mercenary and they will do anything for money and to get military equipment.

Hyrbyair Marri said that General Ayub Khan told America that the Pakistani army is your army, they will do whatever US tells them. However, from General Ayub Khan to General Pervez Musharraf all money received from the United States actually worked against the US interest.

General Musharraf gained financial support and military equipment from the US by claiming to be the USA’s ally in fighting extremist and Jihadist terrorists. Instead, he supported religious extremists with the American monetary aid, and even equipped the terrorists with US weapons to use in Afghanistan and India.

These fanatical jihadists and fundamentalists groups have ruined the peace in world, most notably in Afghanistan. Pakistan has been using these radical groups to create a bloodbath in Afghanistan. That same Pakistani army, for the sake of money, is now tightening the noose for Baloch with the support of China. There are now numerous indiscriminate ground attacks and air strikes against the Baloch people in Balochistan. Thousands of Baloch including women and children have become victims of Pakistani state savagery and brutal attacks.

Hyrbyair Marri said, “The world community should break its silence and raise voice against Pakistani and Chinese barbarism in Balochistan.”
