The Baloch Human Rights Organisation (BHRO) on Saturday staged a demonstration outside the Quetta Press Club against the ongoing operation in Mastung and Mashkay.
In their speeches, BHRO activists alleged that Frontier Corps (FC) personnel had killed two men, Abdul Rasheed Baloch and Shah Jahan Baloch, after a raid by at least two dozen FC vehicles in the Perkanoarea locality of Mastung. Abdul Rasheed’s younger brother Fida and two women were also injured as a result of firing by the FC, they said.
They also accused FC personnel of abducting a man identified as Nasir Baloch.
The activists said harassing women was the worst violation of human rights and added that the silence of the media and international organisations over the issue was a matter of grave concern.

For the past few years a 1000 plus Hazaras have been slaughtered in Balochistan. To date the FC has not arrested even one of these cold bloded killers. It stands to reason that the IG FC should have been sacked ages ago, but then the fellow happens to be a serving Major General, so I guess the question accountabillity does not arise.
Come on FC...get all the terrorists...stay steady...
where were you when FC personnel's were targeted with countless times Remote controlled bombs?
This protest is against the killing of a terrorist who had been killing innocent people in Quetta and the gang of these thugs is responsible for bomb blasts in crowded places in city. Weldone FC. Keep the rod oiled
with all due respect....harassing women anywhere is against human dignity, but burying alive women is as per their Baluch culture said Mr Zehri.....
