Zakir Majeed Baloch, 27, and a Master’s student in English from Lasbela University of Agriculture, Water and Marine Sciences, was abducted by Pakistan’s intelligence agencies from Mastung Balochistan, on 8th of June, 2009. He was abducted while he was on his way from Parangabad market to a friend Waheed Baloch’s house. Waheed Baloch and Basit Baloch are eye witnesses this incident. The eyewitness’s accounts have also been published by Asian Human Rights Commission’s webpage. It says:
“His alleged abductors drove up in two cars without number plates and asked the young man a few questions, saying that they were intelligence agents.They took Majeed away with them in their cars without making any charges. One car was a Toyota Vego, the other a Toyota Surf SSR.”
Zakir Majeed was a human rights activist and was working to raise the voice for the thousands of other innocent Balochs who have been abducted by the intelligence agencies of Pakistan and against the grosshuman rights abuses committed by Pakistani occupied Balochistan.
Its been a year since Zakir Majeed was abducted and his whereabouts are still unknown.
We are extremely concerned about the safety of Zakir Majeed, who is being held in the secret torture cells of Pakistani establishment, and we fear that Zakir’s life is in under serious threats until he is not surfaced or released by Pakistan. Zakir Majeed and all the other Balochs living in occupied Balochistan are too entitled to all the rights mentioned in Universal Declaration of Human Rights as it states in its Article 2, and we call upon United Nations to immediately intervene in Balochistan and bring an end to the gross human rights abuses being committed in Balochistan, to compel Pakistan to end the occupation of Balochistan.
