Baloch Student Studying At Islamabad Varsity Abducted On Way Home

Published on

A Baloch student pursuing a Master’s degree from Health Services Academy in Islamabad was allegedly abducted on his way to his hometown near Quetta.

According to reports, Dr Fayyaz Lashari was abducted along with another Baloch student, Dr Nabi Dad Bugti, from Ziarat Cross, near Quetta while returning to his hometown for the Eid holidays. Dr Nabi Dad Bugti was later released.

Dr Fayyaz Lashari is also a physiotherapist. 


Earlier, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) had expressed concerns over the “state’s widespread use of enforced disappearances” in Balochistan to muzzle dissent.

In its fact-finding report, titled: “Balochistan’s struggle for Hope”, the human rights watchdog had noted that there have been continued reports of enforced disappearances in Balochistan and there was no improvement in the situation since 2019 when the HRCP’s team visited the province the last.

It had also stated the HRCP notes with “considerable alarm that Balochistan faces mounting public frustration pertaining to enforced disappearances, economic exclusion, curbs on press freedom, misgovernance and allegations of political manipulation by the establishment”.
