The truth of threatening a Baloch journalist.

Baluchistan, where Journalists lack ownership and support from media organizations and confront number of hurdles. Currently Balochistan has become a battle field for journalist because on daily basis journalists receive death threats from different armed groups, professional criminals and secret agencies of the state; however, the responsible authorities and media organizations do not take theses issue serious, which results the murder of journalist or they give up their profession.
Journalistic activities in several districts of Baluchistan have been dormant due to the ongoing human rights violations, unfortunately, on national and international level; there is no enough awareness about this phenomenon. When the journalist report human rights violation, they are threatened or alleged for the works which they really do not do
The truth of threatening a Baloch journalist
By Altaf Baloch
 Baluchistan, where Journalists lack ownership and support from media organizations and  confront number of hurdles.  Currently Balochistan has become a battle field for journalist because on daily basis journalists receive death threats from different armed groups, professional criminals and secret agencies of the state; however, the responsible authorities and media organizations do not take theses issue serious, which results the murder of journalist or they give up their profession.
Journalistic activities in several districts of Baluchistan have been dormant due to the ongoing human rights violations, unfortunately, on national and international level; there is no enough awareness about this phenomenon. When the journalist report human rights violation, they are threatened or alleged for the works which they really do not do.
The situation still continues in Balochistan. One of the instances is writer’s own (Altaf Baloch), I report from Kech district Balochistan, one of the sensitive districts regarding law and order situation, where professional criminals, security forces and militant organizations are actively working to meet their tasks.
 Two months ago a videos was uploaded on facebook, in which someone interviewed a woman who had been sexually harassed in Kech. In response to the circulation of this video, unknown armed men on June 17th, 2013,  in Kor-e-Posht of Bit Buleda killed a Balochi language poet Mr. Gulzar Riaz. Mr. Gulzar Riaz was allegedly killed for uploading the above interview of women   on facebook.
On 7th July I received an unknown call saying that I had assisted in circulation of a SMS against torturing a woman and assisted in publishing her Interview on facebook. Then they threatened me to count my days of life. Since that I have been suffering from extreme apprehension and tension.  Now the regular death threats have forced me to whether give up my profession or be hidden somewhere. 
On the one hand the reporters and professional journalists confront problems due to professional criminals and state patronized groups on the other hand the Baluchistan tribal elements are also serious threats to journalism. The tribal elements that are mainly involved in politics, they do not tolerate freedom of expression.
We consider Government responsible for all circumstances in Balochistan because the government still has not been able to protect journalists. The failure of responsible authorities proves that now the international community should take notice for the safety of the journalists in restive province of Balochistan.

Its the habit of Pakistan to blame every attack by Raw!!!

Its the habit of Pakistan to blame every attack by Taliban in Pakistan to be a handiwork of RAW despite the fact that RAW is not Islamist but Taliban is Islamist and such a connivance is a myth.
But they will not prevent themselves from blaming Indians. So here is the copy of the document informing the imminent attack on jail in Dera Ismail Khan, accessed by Asansol News.
The Pakistani agencies had informed the various authorities on 29 July itself that Tehreek-e-Taliban-Pakistan or TTP was planning a massive attack and the document's copy was forwarded to various authorities like PM office, Defense office, intelligence branches, police and paramilitary agencies in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Home Secretary office etc. Still the attack happened.
This is actually an ISI covert ops and well connived by the state to release the jihadist elements whom they had no easy way to release. Now in the name of Islam these jihadists will wreck havoc.
Whatever happened, at least they can't put amateurish charges on Indian secret services.

War Crimes Trials – Pakistan’s dirty war from Bangladesh to Balochistan

ARTICLE : By Faiz M Baluch
On 17 July a Bangladesh war crimes tribunal sentenced a leader of Jamaat-e-Islami for crimes against humanity during the 1971 war of independence. He along with others is accused of collaborating with Pakistan army and hence allegedly involved in murder, rape and other crimes against humanity. The Bangladeshi government estimated that at least 3 million people (including women and children) were killed and 250,000 women raped by the ‘Islamic’ Punjabi Army of Pakistan and their ‘pious’ collaborators from the Al-Badar and Al-Shams extremist organisations.

Despite all the crimes against humanity by Pakistan and its Bangladeshi collaborators, the people of Bangladesh continued their war of liberation. Although their freedom came with a heavy price but eventually the day arrived when more than 90,000 Pakistan soldiers surrendered at Dhaka and become Indian prisoners of war. What was called as East Pakistan became an independent country. Modern country of Bangladesh was added to the list of free nations on 16 December 1971. Bangladeshi’s independence has ended Pakistani barbarism in their country.

While the trial of Pakistan’s collaborators continues in Bangladesh, most of the Pakistani perpetrators of such crimes are still at large and repeat the same in Balochistan and Sindh. Thousands of Baloch men, women and children have been killed by Pakistan military and their proxy religious death squad in since 1948. This was the year when Pakistan forcefully occupied the sovereign country of Baloch people. The length and width of Pakistan military terror has now been expanded to Sindh because the Sindhis have also started to raise their voice for their independence. The consistent struggle of Baloch people since 1948 is an indication of the fact that Pakistan simply cannot crush their freedom movement. History has witnessed that Bangladeshi people defeated Pakistani military and their religious proxies, in the same way the Baloch and Sindhis will eventually liberate their nations from Pakistan’s occupation.

Pakistan military have created several criminal clandestine organisations across Balochistan. Their task is merely to carry out extra-judicial target killing of pro-liberation Baloch activists. These proxy religious groups along with Pakistan army are involved in abduction, torture and killing of Baloch. They are also responsible for abductions for ransom and attacking of the NATO supply lines. The fundamentalist groups that Pakistan has set against the Baloch national struggle are too many. They include of Ansar-al-Islam; Tahafuz-e-Hadoodullah, Mussallah Defa Tanzeem, Nefaaz-e-Aman, Haq Na Tawar and many other shadowy criminal gangs. The leaders of these groups are Shafeeq Mengal, his brother Atta-ul-Rehman Mengal, Kohi Mengal and others. They are on Pakistan military’s pay role and they hire convicted criminals, drug Mafia and other anti-social thugs in order use them against Baloch peoples’ struggle for their liberation.

One of their informers has recently been arrested by Baloch Liberation Front, a Baloch resistance organisation, from Kharan area of Balochistan. He was allegedly about to complete a secret mission for Major Siraj aka Saeed Mengal. According BLF spokesperson, the informer Tariq Rodeni ​​made important disclosures during interrogation. He stated that ‘Shafiq Mengal’ alias ‘Abu Mawiya’ is member of Jamat ul Dawa and he was trained by ISI in Kashmir. He is now directly involved in killings of Baloch freedom activists.

Another member of Pakistan army death squad has been arrested by the Baloch Liberation Army near Kalat Balochistan. In a video confession he confessed to killing several people on the orders of Shafeeq Mengal and his brother. He also revealed that Shafiq Mengal, Atta-ul-Rehman Mengal, Kohi Khan Mengal, Sardar Sanuallah Zehri [a senior minister in current provincial government of Balochistan] and several others are directly involved in abducting and killing of Baloch political activists. He also said that the Pakistan army have asked Shafiq Mengal and Kohi Mengal to attack NATO trucks – and they did attack several NATO supply trucks in different area in Balochistan. The informer, Irfan Gurgnadi, has further revealed that the above named people have at least three private torture cells and another one that they run together with Pakistan army. He witnessed the killing of many Baloch activists in their custody and confessed the target killing of many Baloch journalists, political leaders, police officers and other members of community. Gurgnadi has admitted that the Pakistan army and Shafiq Mengal death squad team have killed a Baloch singer named Ali Jan for refusing to act as their hit man to kill Dr Allah Nazar Baloch.

Similar hired groups of Pakistan military operate in Sindh as well. According to Sindhi freedom activists these umbrella organisation of Military also operate against pro-freedom Sindhi parties. For this purpose the “Laar Abadgar Welfare Association (LAWA)” is supported by ISI and the Jamat-ul-Dawa of Hafiz Saeed. This association had allegedly killed Majid Memon, a member of Badin district committee of JSMM. The Sindhi activists claim that the Jamat-ul-Dawa is actively working against Sindhudesh Freedom Movement. On several occasions this proxy religious organisation of ISI has openly called Baloch and Sindhudesh freedom activists as the agents of India and USA. Over 20 Sindhi freedom activists have been killed by Pakistan military and their hit squads.

These organisations operate with full military impunity and carry out heinous crimes against innocent people of Balochistan. The military has also given them official passes to get through easily at check points and carry out their drug business. The leaders of these criminal organisations have no respect for Islam or humanity. They take their orders directly from high raking military officials and for their criminal dirty work they are paid by Pakistan army.

Dr Allah Nazar Baloch in an interview with Karlos Zurutuza said, “They [Pakistan Army] have formed these groups in the name of Islam but their real aim is to crush the Baloch freedom movement. Pakistan is the cradle of the Taliban and the breeding ground of the Taliban. Pakistan is nourishing and funnelling the Taliban and Al-Qaeda terrorists into Afghanistan, India, Saudi Arabia, Yemen… Pakistan is an irresponsible state that is putting the civilised world in danger. A free Baloch state would therefore be in the interest of the whole civilised world.”

A recent video posted on Youtube shows the leader of Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, Malik Ishaq being trained by Punjab elite force. This nexus between Pakistan’s security forces and banned terrorist outfit clearly show Pakistan’s support for the spread of terror against Shia community across Pakistan and against Baloch and Sindhi activists. Malik Ishaq’s group has links with Al-qaeeda and the firing practice video proves that Pakistani forces are directly involved in supporting the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in spreading terror against Shias in Gilgit Baltistan, Sindh and Balochistan.

An interview with a foreign TV channel Baloch leader Hyrbyair Marri said, “They [religious organisation] want to weaken the pro-independence people through these kinds of acts of terror where one sect of Muslim attacks another sect of Muslim. It is created by the Pakistani government just to weaken Baloch nationalism. We have to understand these people, Lashkari Jhangvi, are mostly from Punjab their leadership is in Punjab. The world has to come out and speak against these organisations.”

Hyrbyair Marri speaks with experience and his concerns are genuine. He made a timely call on the international community to act before it is too late. The international community including the United Nations and the International Criminal Court has ignored the Pakistan military and their collaborators’ crimes against humanity for too long. They left Bangladeshi people unprotected and their butchers unaccountable. That is why Pakistan is once again taking full advantage of the incompetence of ICC and UN and committing even more brutal crimes in Balochistan knowing too well that it will not be held accountable for the Baloch genocide. Since the illegal occupation of Balochistan in 1948 the Baloch land has remained a blind spot for claimant of international justice and for the international media.

It is time for the ICC, the UN and rest of the world to look beyond their door steps and stop their selective policy of justice. Ignoring Baloch any longer will be tantamount to collaborating with the states of Pakistan and Iran in Baloch genocide. Pakistan and its Baloch collaborators must be held accountable for the death and destruction in Balochistan.

As Max du plessis, an assistant professor, of University of KwaZulu in Durban rightly says, “It is in the interests of justice and the reputation of the ICC that it stretches its work beyond Africa. By doing so the court will deny powerful African elites the stick that they so easily and distractingly wave at the ICC. It will also – where the evidence shows a need for the court’s intervention – be a means by which to pay homage to the principle of equal justice under law.”

Pakistan is violating international laws and UN conventions in Balochistan: Hyrbyair Marri

<a href='http://balochwarna.com/features/articles.40/Enforced-Disappearances-and-extra-judicial-killings-Systematic-Genocide-in-Balochistan.html'>Enforced Disappearances and extra judicial killings: Systematic Genocide in Balochistan</a>
Baloch patriot leader Hyrbyair Marri 
Baloch patriot leader Hyrbyair Marri said the continuous arrests and dumping of tortured bodies of Baloch activists across Balochistan only confirms our view. The current government of Pakistan is no different from its predecessors. Their presence in Balochistan means more bloodshed.

He paid tributes to Khuda Dad Marri and said that Khuda Dad was a young and dedicated Baloch political activist. From an early age he was at the heart of Baloch liberation struggle. He worked tirelessly for Balochistan’s freedom. He and his family have been a source of inspiration to independence movement. 

“The killing of eight Baloch in Sui – Dera Bugti, crackdown against Baloch population in Harnai, Shahrag, Nsk and extra judicial arrest and disappearances from Awaran, Mastung and Quetta are continuation of the same policy. The state of Pakistan and its selected representatives in Balochistan assembly are responsible for all dreadful atrocities in Balochistan. In previous government Sardar and Nawab were working for Pakistan and now the pro-establishment Baloch and so-called middle-class are selling the Baloch blood.” Hyrbyair Marri said.

He said despite state’s boundless carnage in Balochistan, the Baloch freedom struggle is growing faster and moving forward in more disciplined manner. The Baloch nation has defeated the state and army of Pakistan on every ground, ethically, morally, legally and psychologically. The intensification of extra judicial abduction and killing of Baloch people with the arrival of the new government is an indication of their defeat. Pakistan knows no other alternative but except excessive violence. The criminal army of Pakistan does not even spare the relatives of Baloch martyrs who go to receive the bodies of their loved ones, after they are killed under custody of Pakistani security agencies and their bodies are dumped. 

He said that along with Pakistani state the Baloch in the government are also equally responsible for state brutalities in Balochistan. The remedy to such brutalities is not pretentious lip service or expressing fake sympathies towards the families of the victims of occupying state’s violence. The remedy is in our continuous struggle until the Baloch victory. The final answer is not continuous begging from our occupiers to allow us to live in our homeland but it is Baloch national liberation and establishment of a free and democratic Baloch state.

He added perpetual struggle is the only guarantor to our national emancipation. The unceasing sacrifice of our youths is drawing us closer to our ultimate goal. Loss of Baloch patriotic men and women is an infinite loss to our nation. The agony of inhuman pain inflicted on our leaders and national heroes does not disappear in thin air. Their lives, their deeds and the way they stood for our rights to the end have enriched our national consciousness and have made us more resilient to pursue the path of independence. Through their actions, they taught us to identify national friends and foes. 

Addressing UN and other International organisations, Mr. Marri said that Balochistan is an illegally occupied country. Pakistan is violating all international laws in Balochistan. We demand that Baloch political prisoners should be ascribed as Prisoners of War and be treated in accordance with international laws and UN conventions. 

“If Pakistan does not cease its crimes in Balochistan then the democratic nations of world should take notice of violation of International laws by Pakistan and take practical steps against it as they did in Yugoslavia and Sudan,” Mr. Marri said.

He urged International Human Rights organisations and International community to raise their voice against Pakistani state terrorism and brutalities in Balochistan. 

He said that the International media should break their silence and bring the plight and sufferings of Baloch nation to the attention of International community. Instead of trusting Pakistani government and Pakistani state media, International media should independently investigate the situation in Balochistan and report accordingly. Pakistan and its media have always portrayed a wrong image of Baloch struggle and history before the world.

The current government has agreed to launch a fresh military operation in Balochistan: Mir Dawood Raisani

Mir Wadood Raisani
Quetta:A prominent Baloch leader, Mir Wadood Raisani, said on Saturday that Pakistan will send additional 100,000 military personnel to Balochistan to launch a fresh military offensives. 

“The intelligence agencies have taken the prime in confidence and Dr Malik Baloch and friend also unanimously agreed for this new military incursion. The operation will began during month of October and December and for this purpose the military will enter Balochistan through Dera Ghazi Khan and Karachi and head toward coast of Makuran,” Mr Raisani said. 

He said when Chaudhry Nisaar visited Quetta, Balochistan, he clearly said that Baloch freedom fighters should now abandon their fight and come back to their homes because all national parties took part in election. Chaudhry had also said now there is no excuse to fight and if anyone continues to fight, then the state of Pakistan will take strong action against them for violating the constitution of Pakistan. Dawood Raisani said the above statement of Chaudry Nisar was part of the plan to pave way for military operation in Balochistan. 

He said, “We want to inform Punjab and its Army that it is not easy to occupy the Baloch land with brute force. Punjabi occupiers are not stronger than the British other occupiers that they will invade Balochistan. The so called National Party is not a representative party of the Baloch people neither has the Baloch people voted for them. In fact Baloch nation completely stayed away from the election process of state [Pakistan]. They declared their independence and full support to Baloch freedom fighters.”

He further said that Baloch nation should rest assure that this artificial state cannot continue its occupation over Balochistan because the Baloch struggle is spread all over from the coastal belt to mountains and deserts of Balochistan. Thousands of Baloch are ready to continue this struggle till victory.
