Seven Baloch Students Forcibly Disappeared by Pakistani Forces in Karachi

Seven Baloch Students Forcibly Disappeared by Pakistani Forces in Karachi

Seven students from the Baloch community in Pakistan have gone missing after being taken by security forces.

Five of them were studying at a big university in Karachi and were taken from their home during a night raid.

People who protect human rights say the students were hurt before being taken away, and nobody knows where they are now.

Two other students had also disappeared earlier in the same week.

Human rights groups are very worried and are asking the Pakistani authorities to tell everyone where the students are.

They say it is against the law to make people disappear and that it hurts families very badly.

One leader said students are being treated like targets just for going to school.

There was also sadness because a child was reportedly killed in a drone strike in a different part of Balochistan.

Many people are calling for an end to these actions and for everyone to be treated fairly and safely.
