Baloch Families Amplify Voices Worldwide in Fight for Justice

In Balochistan, an alarming rise in enforced disappearances has prompted families of missing Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) leaders to call for urgent justice. Denied answers from authorities, they are resorting to peaceful protests and social media campaigns to highlight their plight.

Last month, these families launched a dedicated social media account, @ReleaseBYCLeaders, to garner public support. The account shares emotional images of relatives under the hot sun, clutching photos of their missing loved ones. One poignant post urges public conscience: 'How long will this silence last?'

The family-led campaign underscores the enduring human rights issue of enforced disappearances. For decades, Baloch activists have reportedly been targeted by state agencies, leaving thousands unaccounted for. Despite government denials, families demand transparency and justice in the face of continuous impunity.
