Balochistan: Whereabouts of three women and three others remain unknown
QUETTA: Pakistani forces have abducted at least six persons including three women and a child from the same family in Quetta – capital of Balochistan – on Thursday evening.
According to details, Pakistani intelligence agencies, FC and local authorities have abducted 60-year-old Haji Dost Ali son of Malook Bugti, his 7 years old son, Amin Bugti, 80-year old Fareed Bugti, Izzato daughter of Malha Bugti, Murad Khatoon daughter of Nazagho Bugti and Mahnaz daughter of Fareed Bugti from the Hazar Ganji area of Quetta.
The family of the abducted persons have requested the government of Baloch and ‘nationalist political parties’ to play their role for the safe and immediate release of the Baloch women and children.
The targeting and abduction of Baloch women by Pakistani forces and military-backed criminal gangs have dramatically increased in recent months.
Earlier this month Pakistani forces abducted thirteen people including three women from Dera Bugti and four women from Awaran region of Balochistan. The women abducted from Awaran were later accused and charged with possessing weapons and facilitating Baloch pro-freedom armed groups.
The women from Dera Bugti and Awaran were released but the perpetrators who abducted them and kept them in illegal custody for several days remain at large.
The abduction of 6 persons including women children from Quetta on Thursday shows that they are want to continue to terrorise and harass Baloch women and nobody including media, judiciary and other institution raise voice against the official perpetrators.
