In the heart-wrenching reality of Balochistan, the plight of PhD scholar Arif Baloch unfolds as a poignant symbol of the enforced disappearances devastating the region. Gripped by despair, Arif clutches a photo of his missing brother, Wajid Baloch, as his tears echo a story of profound anguish and resilient spirit.
Balochistan, a region marred by a series of enforced disappearances, witnessed yet another tragedy with the forceful disappearance of Muhammad Amir from Mastung. This heart-rending incident compounds the ongoing crisis, drawing attention to the urgent need for justice.
The world finds itself at a critical juncture — a crossroads where the choice between heeding the calls for justice and complicit silence can shape the future. The Baloch people's plea is simple yet powerful: to be seen, for their pain to be acknowledged, and for global solidarity to stand against the oppressive actions of the Pakistani state.
Beyond the emotional turmoil, Balochistan faces a cycle of state violence amounting to a silent genocide. The question remains: will the world turn a blind eye, or will it join the chorus demanding justice and an end to the tyranny faced by the Baloch people?
