Balochistan: Son of slain Baloch political activist abducted from Quetta

QUETTA: Pakistan Frontier Corps have abducted Nasir Ahmad son of late Ghaffar Langov from Quetta, the capital of Balochistan on 15 December 2017.

According to details, Pakistan intelligence agencies and FC abducted Nasir Ahmad from Killi Allahabad Quetta. Eyewitnesses said that Pakistani officials have physically tortured Nasir on the spot before dragging him and shoving him into their official vehicle in public.

20-year-old Nasir Ahmad is a student of Intermediate in Science College Quetta and the only brother of five sisters, who lost their father in 2011.

Pakistani forces abducted Mr Abdul Ghaffar Langov – father of Nasir Ahmad – from a hospital in Karachi on 11 December 2009. He remained in secrets detention of Pakistani forces till his mutilated dead body was found in July 2011.

Abdul Ghaffar Langov aka Mir Ghaffar was a pro-freedom Baloch political activist who like thousands of other Baloch was abducted and kept in illegal detention for nearly 18 months and then killed under-custody and his body dumped at a derelict building in Gaddani, Balochistan.

The family of Nasir Langov expressed their extreme concern about his safety and whereabouts as they fear that he might also be treated like his father and thousands of other enforced-disappeared Baloch activists.

The family has contacted the local police to register a First Information Report (FIR) but the police have refused register their case.

The police force in Balochistan fears reprisal from the ISI and Pakistan army and hence they refuse to register cases against the abduction of Baloch political activists by Pakistani forces.
