Activist Jibran Nasir slammed Pakistan's handling of Balochistan violence, accusing the state of denial and blame-shifting. He warned that repression and silencing critics block lasting peace, as kidnappings and disappearances continue to fuel fear and insecurity across the province.
Sammi Deen Baloch, a leader of the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), has been released after being detained under the MPO Act. While her release is welcomed, calls for the freedom of other detained BYC members continue to grow.
He further accused the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) of lacking accountability to the public and sitting in the "lap of the establishment."
