In just two weeks, several Baloch people have been forcibly disappeared from Maripur, Malir, Lyari and other Baloch settled areas of Karachi.
9 NAMES. 9 FAMILIES. NO ANSWERS.
Amir, 28, shopkeeper
Sabir, 28, labourer
Abdul Aziz, 30, labourer
Muhammad Khalid, 20, fisherman
Shahbaz Ahmed, 20, student
Sakhi, 25, fisherman
Amir Ahmed, 30, fisherman
Dost Muhammad, 25, labourer
Allah Bux, 28, teacher
These are only nine documented cases. Many more Baloch have been forcibly disappeared, but their families cannot speak openly. Some cases remain undocumented, while families have been threatened into silence.
NIGHT RAIDS HAVE TURNED SLEEP INTO FEAR
The pattern is familiar: raids after dark, homes surrounded, doors forced open and men taken away without charge or explanation.
CTD, police and Rangers are the forces in uniform carrying out this repression.
THE BALOCH ARE NOT SAFE EVEN IN KARACHI
Students and ordinary Baloch people continue to be forcibly disappeared.
From Maripur to Lyari and Malir, the geography of enforced disappearances continues to expand, turning Karachi a city where generations of Baloch have built their lives and homes into another place of fear.
WHERE ARE THE FORCIBLY DISAPPEARED BALOCH?
The law allows three responses: charge them, produce them, or release them.
Pakistan has chosen a fourth — silence.
That silence leaves families without answers. Enforced disappearance violates fundamental rights and constitutes a grave human rights abuse prohibited under international law.
KARACHI MUST NOT BECOME ANOTHER BLACK HOLE
Decades ago, Asad Mengal was forcibly disappeared from Karachi. His family has spent decades waiting for answers.
The machinery may have changed names and uniforms, but the pattern remains: disappear a person, deny responsibility, and leave the family waiting.
We will Never accept this silence.
Never, Ever !
