A number of organisations and political parties staged a protest against human rights violations in Balochistan, particularly of Baloch missing persons, amidst the presence of Dr Fauzia Siddiqi, the sister of imprisoned Dr Aafia in US on Saturday. The rally, arranged by relatives and friends of Baloch missing persons, including women and children outside the Quetta Press Club on Saturday, demanded the United Nations and humanitarian organisations take notice of the issue. Participants observed a black day for the governments’ failure to release missing persons. The demonstration was under the auspices of the Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) on the eve of International Human Rights Day. The rally led by VBMP chairman Nasrullah Baloch walked through the city roads and culminated in a demonstration outside the Quetta Press Club.
