Human Rights Violations in Balochistan

We the Peaceful Baloch people are facing massive human rights violations just for forceful displacement from our ancestral homeland. Rulers from one dominating province Punjab need our lands, coasts and natural resources. They are crushing Baloch people by army and other forces. They have created a general atmosphere of harassment and insecurity. Jumping in our homes in the middle of night, arresting people with out warrants, taking them blind fold to unknown places, torturing them brutally is an every day practice here.

CASE 1
Background
Kohlu Kahan is a rough mountainous area, famous for Battle of Nafusk in 1839 when Marri Baloch’s defeated the British armies. Conquering British armies from Bangal till Punjab faced an entirely different situation where they faced Marri resistance and had to run back for the lives of survivors leaving behind their ammunition instead of passing through Bolan. After inclusion of Balochistan in Pakistan Marri Baloch’s faced a series of military operations including massive bombardment, majority of Marri’s had to migrate to Afghanistan where they lived in refugee camps for 22 years.
After a patch up with Pakistan govt. Marri came back, their water resources, agricultural lands and herds were completely destroyed; nothing was done for their rehabilitation. "Unfortunately for the Marri" the area of Kohlu Kahan is very rich in oil fields, which has become another reason for the destruction of Marri Baloch’s. To occupy oil and other minerals by the state the policy of divide and rule is applied on Marri’s that the very democratic tribe is first divided in ruling elite and commons, ruling elite have given opportunities for a very luxurious life and common Marri’s are now living below the line of poverty with no health, education, housing or income facilities.
The other division is instigated between sub-tribes (Bijarani & Gazeni) fighting on petty things, a small part of Bijarani elite is enjoying favours from state and Gazenies are out.
When they were united they were a power to resist invaders now they are the most vulnerable to state violence.

It was January 2000 when name of a Marri Baloch Judge nominated on seniority bases as coming Chief Justice of Balochistan High Court which was unacceptable for 'the rulers' he was killed on road to High Court by gun shot.
Nawab Khair Baksh Marri an Eighty years old Chief of Marri tribes, who is one of the most popular leaders of Baloch nationalist movement which resists the policies and processes of snatching natural resources of Balochistan by the state, was arrested with the false allegation of murder of Justice.

On January 09, 2000, in the middle of the night police raided on a very poor and marginalized community of Marri’s working as labourers on daily wages near Quetta and arrested 106 people, took them to torture cells.
As a result of brutal torture several have lost their senses and majority facing physical abnormalities.
Now in the area of Kohlu Kahan Pakistan army is freely constructing cantonment structures, digging oil fields, kidnapping tribal people who show any resistance.

Background
Pakistan army spends more than 80% of the total budget but still their hunger and greed is increasing. Few years back Pakistan army directly indulged in civil departments with a justification of checking corruption. Started interfering WAPDA in Sep. 1997 they suddenly disconnected electric supply of the farmers in

Mr. Sanaullah Baloch member of defunct National Assembly who was leading the procession to, was told that they had reached an understanding with the local authorities allowing the precisionists to stage their demonstration and public gathering condemning the WAPDA role in disconnecting of the power supply and raising tariff.
The procession was marching peacefully towards the ground, when the procession was approaching sona khan thana close to Marri camp from fruit and vegetable market, it was fired upon. It was the well armed forces which made the innocent people the target to the extent to kill them.

CONDEMNATION
President of Balochistan national Party and convener of PONM ( Pakistan Oppressed Nation Movement),Sardar Attahullah Khan Mangle, President of Pakhtoonkhaw MAP and deputy convener of PONM Mr.; Mahmood Khan Achakzi and former Chief Minister of Balochistan Sardar Akhtar Mangel ,expressed his shock over the indiscriminate firing on the growers by the armed forces in Quetta. He expressed his sympathies with the heirs of those killed saying that' our share in this part of Balochistan was nothing but sorrows and mourning after the creation of Pakistan. Mr;Sana ullah Baloch,who led the procession,demanded that the SSP,DC,ADC and other senior responsible for the act be arrested and punished under the law.

CASE 3
As mentioned before that Balochistan has made a hunter land for army and police. They are arresting people on false allegations and treating them inhumanly.
In April, 2001Abdul Razzaq, 27 years was arrested by Sariab police station, Quetta. For three days he was tortured and kept hungry. On fourth day he died in the police station. Public of sariab blocked the National Highway as protest. The police did not even record the F.I.R.

Dude, don't even get me started on these 'innocent' baloch separatists.

My recent absence from WAB for a few days, can be attributed to these schmucks. Being one of the vocal writers on UPK, and the closest one from their terrorist grasps, I was given several threats, by the "Nawab Akbar Bugti Team". I told them simply, if you think you're right, come and debate it out. I got responses, You **** ****er, u **** mixed with piss ****er... lol, it was hillarious... Till they hired some hackers to take out the site.

Some easy estimates put them upto 10Million in the world, I think in Pakistan they're about 6Million (actual figures). Now they use this to their advantage since most people haven't met a Balochi a whole lot, either. But in Dubai there are quite a few. I know so many in the police and they're doing good. They've always favored us Pakistanis, for that very fact. I grew up with several in my class as well who I remember were staunch Pakistani supporters. Their lie just doesn't fly with me.

They sure do EXIST! Now some people will deny their existence, hey UPK's 1 week downtime is ample proof, that they do. But they're a minority. Issues yes. Separatist Agenda, no. Why do you think Bugti's going around Balochistan trying to recruit support these days? He made a plea, a month ago, for all Balochi leaders to unite. The realy smart people know the true HR violations are done by these Sardars. Till date, when they got NOTHING, there were no problems. The previous governments gave the Sardars their share in exchange for them to shut up. Nothing went to the Balochis. Now thats an issue. But now when there are Projects upon projects sprouting up in Balochistan, there are separatists? The current government refuses to pay off the Sardars. Instead wants to invest into the province.

You know whats the argument of these Sardars against all the projects? "We Balochis don't know anything and aren't educated, so all the benefits of these projects would be reaped by Mohajirs (Pakistanis that left India and came here, mostly)". How retarded is that? I mean you could just whine about getting Balochis trained, not close down the entire provincial progress because of a brain drain decades ago.

This website and the other one. They threatened us to keep the site down. I spat on their face and it took me a while, but with the support and encouragement of hundreds, we're back online.

SO don't tell me how innocent these schmucks are. Most of them are just masquerading as Balochis. What gave some of them away was the use of the letter D to represent an R sound? That was really stupid... Many are political workers who post news like "Today Bugti saab went and shitted for a 3 minutes too long, we were worried...... Long Live Bugti". It's so sickening to see our Pakistanis bowing down to Men who want to be called Gods and Lords.

I assumed that some Indian group brought down your site. Now I am really surprised.I dont know about Bugti but i read somewhere that all Balochis despise the Pak army for some reason. I will try to get the link.

They're a minority amongst Balochis. You see, you hardly seen anyone from the common public amongst Balochis since they're allowed to get smart and educated. They're a function of what the Sardars order. Doing anything else means getting abducted and shot.

Indian? Thats ummm always possible. But I won't bet on it.
