Pakistan is using international support to commit atrocities in Balochistan: BSO-Azad

Quetta :  The central spokesperson of Baloch Student Organisation – Azad said on Sunday that Netherlands announcement to provide 2.5 million dollar to Balochistan police in name eradication of drug crimes implementation of law is a matter of great concern. This amount will directly be used for Baloch genocide by Pakistan’s security agencies. The BSO-Azad statement further said, “The police are hand in glove with criminal gangs in an attempt to supress the Baloch national struggle.” Enforced disappearances, discovery of mutilated bodies of missing Baloch, bombardment on civilian populations and violations of international human rights laws are rapidly on the rise in Balochistan, the spokesperson added. The spokesperson further said that human rights violations by Pakistani administrations, intelligence agencies and security forces are a matter of grave concern for the world community and providing logistic support to Pakistan puts a question mark to the claims of international community about their claims to support human rights. Pakistan’s security forces are already using NATO and American provided support against Baloch people despite clear reports from international institutions that Pakistan intelligence agencies and police were directly supporting criminal gangs against Baloch freedom struggle. Similarly, the support provided by Netherlands will be used to suppress Baloch nation in the name of fight against drug crimes. “In the light of on-going human rights violation in the region the world should reconsider their support for Pakistan because it is using the international aid to help extremist groups which a danger to world peace”, said the BSO-Azad spokesperson. The statement of BSO-Azad further read that Pakistan was bombing civilian populated areas to conceal her defeat in Balochistan. The state was spreading terror and fear in different areas of Balochistan, few days ago Pakistan air force bombed Fazal Chayl, Koh-sunt and Mawand areas in Kohlu. Separately, the FC has harassed and humiliated people during a raid in Prome area of Punjgur few days earlier.

Why Balochistan Needs to Be Separated from Pakistan?

Ralph Peters, the American Military General and Strategic Thinker on Balochistan and Pakistan during a Congressional Hearing

Pakistan as an illegitimate state. It is a democracy only to the extent Pakistani military allows it to be. It is, in fact, a "miniature empire" and "an artifact of imperial age".

Balochistan an occupied territory that has been forcibly seized by Pakistan (an oppressor). US state Department's obsession to respect and defend Pakistan's borders and to treat them as inviolable as a "travesty".

Americans need to respect the Balochi yearn for freedom and their right of self-determination. Ralph Peters rightly calls US to "stop paying tribute money to the Pakistani pirates".

Pakistan's army chief warns judges not to undermine military

Pakistan's army chief warns judges not to undermine military

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan's army chief warned on Monday, in a veiled challenge to the Supreme Court, that any efforts to undermine the military and "draw a wedge" between it and its citizens would not be tolerated.

Chief Supreme Court Judge Iftikhar Chaudhry ruled last month that the military must stop interfering in politics, a rare challenge to Pakistan's powerful generals.

The ruling has stoked tensions between the court and the military, which has ruled Pakistan for more than half of its 65-year history through coups or from behind the scenes.

"Any effort which wittingly or unwittingly draws a wedge between the people and Armed Forces of Pakistan undermines the larger national interest," said General Ashfaq Kayani, in a rare public statement that did not specifically mention the court or its judges.

An army official, who wished not to be named because of the sensitivity of the matter, confirmed that Kayani was responding in part to the Supreme Court judgment.

The October court ruling came in connection with a case dating back to 1996 in which a retired air marshal filed a petition against the army for sponsoring a political alliance.

The Supreme Court has asked the federal government to take necessary steps under the constitution against retired generals named in the case. However, Pakistan's government has little sway over generals in the military, which is one of the biggest in the world.

"While individual mistakes might have been made by all of us in the country, these should be left to the due process of law," Kayani said.

"Let us not pre-judge anyone, be it civilian or a military person, and extend it, unnecessarily, to undermine respective institutions."

The long-running standoff between the judiciary and the U.S.-backed government has fuelled instability in Pakistan, a nuclear-armed country with a fragile economy that has been battered by a Taliban insurgency.

In the late 1980s, Pakistan's military Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI) was accused of establishing a political cell that worked with the presidency to distribute money to selected politicians in a bid to get them elected.
