Family members of ‘missing persons’ in Quetta stage sit-in – Pakistan

QUETTA: Family members of missing persons on Sunday staged a sit-in against the failure of law-enforcement agencies to recover their loved ones despite continued protests.

Family members of Jahanzeb Baloch and political activists gathered in the camp of Voice for the Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) at the Adalat Road and took out a protest rally.

The participants of the rally, led by Mama Qadeer Baloch and the family members of Jahanzeb, marched up to the Quetta Press Club carrying banners, placards and portraits of the missing persons.

They raised slogans against the government. Later, the rally converted into a sit-in where speakers, including Masooma Baloch, the daughter of Jahanzeb, expressed serious concern over continued forced disappearances of political activists and students and demanded recovery and production of all missing people before the court of law if they are involved in any crime.

“My father has been missing for a long time and we have no information about his whereabouts. We are not even aware if he is alive or not,” Ms Baloch said.

She appealed to national and international human rights organizations to help her in the recovery of her missing father.
