Balochistan: Police Baton Charge on Peaceful Protesters, Voices Rise Against State Oppression

Quetta (Special Correspondent) – The peaceful protest in Balochistan against the Pakistani state intensified when police allegedly baton-charged the demonstrators. Protesters claim that the state is resorting to oppression and tyranny to silence their voices raised for their rights.

According to eyewitnesses, police used force without provocation during the protest, injuring several people. The protesting demonstrators stated that they were raising their voices for their fundamental rights, but state institutions are allegedly resorting to cruelty and oppression to suppress them.

One protester expressed anger and grief, saying, “Our lives hold so little value to the state that they kill us and don’t even count it. We must stand up for ourselves and our future generations.”

This protest began when voices were raised against alleged enforced disappearances and human rights violations in various areas of Balochistan. Protesters claim that instead of addressing their demands, state institutions are attempting to silence them by using force.

Viral videos on social media show police officers allegedly baton-charging protesters to disperse them. Human rights organizations have strongly condemned this incident, stating that peaceful protest is a fundamental right of every citizen, and the state should resolve issues through dialogue rather than force.

The international community has already expressed concern over human rights violations in Balochistan. Protesters demand the protection of their rights and immediate attention to serious issues such as alleged enforced disappearances.
