PANJGUR, BALOCHISTAN: Five bodies have been recovered from the Gwargo area of Panjgur district, Balochistan, while the Pakistani Army has separately claimed to have killed four armed men in the same area.
According to police sources, the bodies of five unidentified individuals were recovered from the Gwargo area of Panjgur district. All the bodies have been moved to Teaching Hospital Panjgur for identification and necessary legal proceedings.
The administration has not yet provided any confirmed details regarding the identities of the deceased.
Separately, Pakistani forces have claimed to have killed four Baloch militants during an operation in the same Gwargo area.
It’s not worth it that the most families of victims have consistently alleged that their loved ones were taken away by Pakistani security forces, including FC personnel and CTD officials. In several documented cases, family members claim to have witnessed the detentions firsthand and in some instances even recorded video footage of their loved ones being taken away by personnel in uniform.
Pakistani forces have repeatedly denied these allegations, maintaining that they act within the bounds of law. However, human rights organizations, civil society groups and public advocacy movements have continued to raise serious concerns over the issue, demanding transparency and accountability.
In a number of deeply troubling cases, individuals who had been reported as missing were later found killed in what authorities described as armed encounters. However, families and human rights groups have frequently challenged these accounts, alleging that many such incidents were staged encounters carried out by CTD and other security forces.
