Pakistani forces continue to kill the cream of the Baloch nation by abducting, torturing and extra-judicially killing Baloch activists, students, leaders, lawyers, teachers, intellectuals and journalists. So far, more than four hundred bullet-riddled and mutilated dead bodies have been found in desolate places of different areas of Balochistan.

A more recent victim is Baloch journalist Razzaq Gull who was abducted by intelligence agencies on the night of May 19. His bullet-riddled dead body was found the next morning.

Express News correspondent Razzak Gul

Razzaq Gull is the 17th Baloch journalist to be killed by state forces during the last three years of reporting in Balochistan which makes Balochistan one of the most dangerous places for journalists in the world. A full-fledged genocide of the Baloch nation continues by the occupying state in Balochistan and anyone who dares to report state atrocities is killed by occupying forces.

The recovery of bullet-riddled dead bodies of Baloch activists continues unabated and all the fake efforts of the judiciary and claims of occupying forces are designed to confuse the world about the actual facts about Balochistan. Yesterday, the bullet-riddled dead body of Abdul Qudoos Baloch, son of Abdul Wahab, was recovered from Khuzdar.

Tomorrow is the 2nd martyrdom anniversary of Mother of the Baloch nation Shaheed Bibi Mehlab Raisani, mother of BRP leader Mir Wadood Raisani. She was a great leader affiliated with the VBMP, an organization struggling for the safe recovery of Baloch missing persons abducted by state forces and intelligence agencies. She was killed by the intelligence agencies of Pakistan in a planned road accident in Kalat, Balochistan, when she was traveling from Quetta to Karachi to attend a judicial commission for the safe recovery of Baloch missing persons. Some other leaders of VBMP, including the current voice chairman Mama Abdul Qadeer Baloch, were also wounded in the attack.

Activists of the Baloch Republican Party (BRP) and Baloch Republican Student Organization (BRSO) are instructed to hold Quran Khuwanis and condolence references tomorrow on the occasion of the 2nd martyrdom anniversary of the Mother of Baloch nation Shaheed Bibi Mehlab Raisani.
