A Senior Superintendent of Police said the bodies were found in Mangho Peer area of Northern Karachi. He also said that it appeared that the two men had been strangled to death as there were sign of rope around their neck.

The local police officer further said that the identity of both Baloch activists was ascertained, with help of chits found in their pocket, as Babo Iftekhar Baloch and Maqbool Ahmad Baloch.

The Vice Chairman of Voice for Baloch Missing Persons told BBC Urdu that the victims were students of Iqra University in Karachi and were living in the city from past two years.

“The men were originally from Panjgur region of Balochistan. Babo Iftekhar was abducted on 28 January this year from Raees Goth, Karachi. After the recovery of these two dead bodies the number of Baloch activist killed and dumped in Karachi has reached to 7 in past two month,” Said Abdul Qadeer Baloch.

Meanwhile the Baloch Human Rights Organisation (BHRO) held a protest rally outside Karachi Press club against the killing and abductions of Baloch activists. The BHRO said that Pakistani judiciary and Human Rights Organisations have failed resolve the issue of grave human rights violation in Balochistan.

“The judiciary, instead of helping the families of abducted Baloch activists, is trying to distort their cases because of which the human rights situation in Balochistan is deteriorating with each coming day,” Said the BHRO leaders.

They urged the international human rights organisations to put pressure on Pakistan to stop the on-going military offensives in Balochistan and abduction Baloch activists and extra judicial killings.
 Bodies of two previously abducted Baloch activists were found in Karachi whereas one Baloch activist was shot dead in Washuk region of Balochistan on Sunday, and with them the number of the abducted Baloch’s bodies found in Karachi reached nine in past few weeks.

Human rights groups and Christian leaders condemned the violence, demanding better protection for the country’s beleaguered minorities.

Xavier Williams, president of the Christian pressure group Life for All Pakistan, said: “The religious intolerance has increased to this extent that the people are willing to kill and burn people and properties. The religious minorities are not safe in Pakistan, they are targeted for their faith.”

The attack was prompted by the arrest of a Christian man on Friday after he allegedly made blasphemous comments.

Police said Imran Shahid, a Muslim, had been drinking with Sawan Masih, a Christian sanitary worker, when a drunken row erupted over religion. Mr Shahid accused his friend of making derogatory remarks about the Prophet Muhammad as their argument turned ugly.

As word of the allegations spread, a crowd emerged from a nearby mosque and descended on Mr Masih’s house before he was detained by police.
