According to reports, Pakistani forces raided a house and forcibly disappeared an individual identified as Ameer Hamza from Mastung.
Hamza's wife said that the forces tortured the households and looted valuables during the raid. Moreover, the Pakistani forces allegedly detained Ameer Hamza in front of his family and subsequently moved him to an undisclosed location, as reported by The Balochistan Post. Meanwhile, two cases of enforced disappearances were reported from the Awaran district of Balochistan.
In a similar development, Pakistan's intelligence agencies allegedly forcibly disappeared two activists of the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM) from Quetta, the capital of Balochistan.
