Press Release
We Strongly Condemn the Cold Blooded
Murders of Baloch Political Activists
Balochi Human Rights Council (BHRC)
strongly condemns the cold blooded
murders of Baloch political activists
Waja Ghulam Mohammad Baloch, Waja Sher
Mohammad Baloch and Lala Muneer Baloch
by the Pakistani Military Intelligence
Agency. They were picked up by security
personnel on 3rdApril,
2009 from the office of their solicitor
in Turbat Balochistan.
Waja Ghulam Mohammad, Waja Sher
Mohammad and Lala Muneer have
steadfastly been in the forefront of the
political mobilisation for the genuine
rights of the Baloch people. Last year,
they have been arrested by the security
agencies, tortured, kept in solitary
confinement for long period before
releasing them. It is being reported by
reliable sources that after picking them
up from the office of Mr. Kachkol Ali
Advocate on 3rd of this month, the
Baloch leaders were blind folded and
taken to an unknown destination. It is
believed that they were thrown from a
military helicopter after being tortured
to death in Peedark hills next day 20
miles away from Turbat.
Balochistan is under a brutal military
operation for the last five years in
which a large number of prominent
social, intellectual and political
figures have been targeted and
eliminated by the state security
agencies of Pakistan. The state
establishment of Pakistan has always
remained very keen to silence the voice
of reason raised for the genuine rights
of the Baloch people.
This disgusting act of the intelligence
agencies of Pakistan reminds us of the
inhuman acts of brutalities on the
Bengali political leadership during the
last days of East Pakistan. It also
reminds us how immoral and shameless an
enemy Baloch are facing.
This is high time for the international
human rights organizations and the
international community to take serious
notice of the crimes against humanity
being committed by the Pakistani state
in Balochistan. We are writing
memorandums at this respect to
UN Secretary General, president of
European Union and many other
international humanitarian
organizations.
