The voice of revolution is once again echoing in Balochistan against the genocide being carried out by Pakistan.
Thousands of people are on the streets. Hundreds have been put in jail by the Pakistani police. This movement against the genocide has been going on for the last one month.
On Thursday, news came that Islamabad Police has released detained female protesters after allegedly insulting, harassing and torturing them for 26 hours on the 28th day of the protest against Baloch genocide.
Baloch Yakjahti Committee has shared the harrowing experience of the detained women on social media. He urged the Baloch nation to continue their protest against the treatment of protesters in Islamabad.
Despite the release of the women activists, concerns remain as more than 200 of their male colleagues are still detained.
Reportedly, 162 of them have been shifted to Adiala jail, while over 50 others have been detained at various police stations in Islamabad. Baloch Yakjahti Committee has expressed its determination to continue the movement against Baloch Genocide and Forced Kidnapping.
“We will continue our agitation against Baloch genocide and forced abduction,” Baloch Yakjahti Committee announced in a social media post.
Next steps will be announced tomorrow via social media, stay tuned.” The long march, organized by the Baloch Yakjahti Committee, was initially triggered by the killing of four young Baloch persons in Kech district.
After this, thousands of people came to the streets to protest against the Baloch massacre. The march passed through various districts of Balochistan and Punjab and faced severe brutality when it reached Islamabad.
The Baloch Human Rights Council expressed deep concern over the “inhumane and brutal response” of the Islamabad Police and the interim government of Pakistan. The council condemned the police actions and accused them of beating and arresting Baloch activists as well as targeting elderly men, women and children participating in the march. “These people want justice for their loved ones who have been forcibly disappeared from different parts of Pakistan,” the Baloch Human Rights Council said in a social media post.
The Council called for condemnation of the use of brutal force. He said that Pakistani officials should respect human rights.
