Jun 29, 2021

Geneva [Switzerland], June 29 (ANI): A three-day-long photo and poster exhibition in front of the United Nations office in Geneva has highlighted the plight of indigenous Baloch people in Pakistan's largest and resource-rich province of Balochistan. The campaign has been launched by the Baloch Voice Association during the ongoing 47th regular session of the UN Human Rights Council. In Balochistan, the indigenous people have been facing the worst human rights crisis where not only killings and abductions are common, but economic exploitation is rampant for the past several years. The family members of many Baloch missing persons have been protesting outside the Press Clubs in Quetta, Karachi and Islamabad to seek justice. The exiled Baloch political activists continue to seek the intervention of the UN to force Islamabad and release all those abducted by the Pakistani security forces.
