This appeal is a call to action for the families affected by enforced disappearances in Balochistan, with a specific focus on Zakir Majeed, who has been missing for 14 agonizing years. It is imperative that we address this issue urgently and ensure justice is served, not only for Zakir Majeed but for all victims of enforced disappearances in the region.
The Pain of Families:
The families of the disappeared endure unimaginable pain and suffering, living with the constant uncertainty of their loved ones' whereabouts and well-being. Zakir Majeed's mother's plea for her son's release highlights the desperation felt by many others in her situation. It is our moral duty to amplify their voices and advocate for their cause.
Human Rights Violations:
Enforced disappearances in Balochistan blatantly violate the fundamental human rights outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The international community, including the United Nations, has expressed deep concern over this issue. It is crucial that we address these concerns promptly and effectively.
Call to Action:
We implore relevant authorities to conduct a thorough, unbiased investigation into the enforced disappearances in Balochistan. Those responsible for these atrocities must be held accountable. The families deserve closure and the right to seek remedies for their immense suffering.
Government's Obligations:
The occupied government of Pakistan must uphold its obligations under international law, particularly the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. This includes putting an end to arbitrary detention, torture, and enforced disappearances. Human rights must be protected for all individuals, regardless of their background.
It is our collective responsibility to take swift action and stand against the gross violations of human rights in Balochistan. Let us work towards a world where justice prevails, and every individual's rights and dignity are upheld. Respecting and protecting human rights is not just a legal obligation; it is a moral imperative. Together, we can ensure that no family has to endure the heartbreak of enforced disappearances.
