QUETTA: The families of Zaman Jan and Abdul Hassan staged a protest on the CPEC road at Hoshap-M8 on Monday, blocking traffic in both directions. The protest aims to demand the immediate recovery of their loved ones, who were forcibly disappeared over a week ago.

The blockade has caused long queues of vehicles on both sides, leaving commuters stranded.

Ground connectivity between Turbat and other areas, including Quetta, Panjgur, Surab, Khuzdar, and Mastung, has been disrupted due to the sit-in. Both passenger and cargo vehicles have been stuck on the highway since the protest began in the morning.

The families have vowed to continue their protest until Zaman Jan and Abdul Hassan are safely returned. According to them, a three-day deadline given to the authorities to address the issue expired without any response.

The incident dates back to December 16, 2024, when Zaman Jan son of Sipahan, Abdul Hassan son of Rehmat and Altaf son of Behram were reportedly taken away by Pakistani forces. While Altaf was released two days later, Zaman Jan and Abdul Hassan remain missing.

The families have accused District Council Chairman Mir Hothman of involvement in the disappearances, saying that he summoned the missing persons to his residence before they were abducted. During a press conference on December 20, the families issued a three-day ultimatum, warning of stronger action if their loved ones were not recovered.

With no resolution in sight, the families have escalated their protest and called on the public to join them in their sit-in at Hoshap to demand justice and accountability. “We will not back down until Zaman Jan and Abdul Hassan are brought back safely,” they said in a statement.

So far, there has been no official response from the authorities or any attempts to negotiate with the protesters to resolve the situation and reopen the highway.

It is worth noting that with the growing number of enforced disappearances across Balochistan, similar protests by the families of victims have become increasingly frequent in towns and cities in Balochistan.

Balochistan A Story of Popular Upheaval

Balochistan’s Gwadar region witnesses one of the largest ever protests recorded in the province. Having begun a month ago, the protests seem to a culmination of all the policies that have ended up in maladministration of the province. The concerns raised by the protests include access to clean water, illegal trawling, CPEC’s arbitrary policies and the fears of influx of outsiders into the region. As usual, the military is expected to diffuse the situation sooner or later; this does not take away attention from the past decades of misgovernance which resulted in the ongoing institutionalization of protests. In the backdrop of the seven-decade long insurgency, the presence of such grievances has also renewed focus on the legitimacy of Kalat’s accession to the dominion of Pakistan in 1948. This is not to question its legality on technical grounds, the reality remains that the coercion on the erstwhile ruler (who had a separate independent status distinct from other princely states) gave way to the continuation of similar tactics on the Baloch people at large.    

 This short article looks into the Human Rights situation in the province, particularly the Enforced Disappearances and the presence of Death Squads, the main issues plaguing Balochistan.

 Enforced Disappearances

 Enforced disappearance and Extra Judicial killings in Balochistan have developed a sense of insecurity among the common Baloch people. This issue has been at the top of the list of all the problems since the law enforcement agencies have been suspected for this case, in order to regulate and overpower insurgency in the province. The exact statistics of these enforced disappeared people remains debatable due to a deliberate under reporting. It was only in 1994 that the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan first looked into the issue of missing persons. The cases of missing persons saw an upsurge in the country following the 9/11 attacks in the US. Further, missing persons increased significantly after the killing of Nawab Akbar Bugti in 2006. The establishment’s response to Baloch nationalists and militants was to set up more military cantonments and outposts throughout the province. In the Marri and Bugti areas, these operations resulted in thousands of Internal displacements as well as migration across the Afghan Border. The government did attempt minimal firefighting through a general amnesty but the situation remained the same. According to a State Department report, “the federal Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearances in Balochistan claimed 164 cases remained pending from 483 cases reported between March 2011 and March 2020”. In July 2020 only, the same report mentions that “45 individuals had disappeared and that assailants had killed 15 persons in seven districts [of the province]”.

 Death Squads

 Ethnic nationalism and popular unrest resulted in the formation of Death Squads, especially in the southwestern districts of Balochistan. Death Squads, which are believed to be unofficially supported by the forces linked to the deep-state have been used as a counter-weight against the insurgents and/or citizens accused of harbouring nationalist sentiments. The squads consisted of religious radicals, drug-smuggling networks and criminals picked up from members of the Baloch society to destabilise the insurgents. They are given tasks to harass, abduct and target and kill political and human rights activists, military critics and the common people with secular ideals. In return, they are given a free hand to blackmail and extort businessmen and indulge in the profitable drug trafficking from Afghanistan to Balochistan´s seashores. The illicit activities of these Squads have lately amplified to unparalleled levels mainly due to the Army outsourcing its genocidal policy to these convicts.

 The districts of Balochistan notoriously associated with Death Squads are namely Mastung, Khuzdar, Kech, Panjgur, Awaran and Dera Bugti. It is unfortunate that despite international campaigns run by the Baloch Diaspora and grassroots activists, the international community is yet to acknowledge the presence of these squads.
