The BYC further highlighted," We urge human rights organizations and civil society to stand against these horrific crimes targeting peaceful Baloch students and civilians. In particular, we call on the United Nations Working Group on Enforced Disappearances to take immediate and preemptive measures to hold Pakistani authorities accountable for their crimes against humanity and the Baloch Nation."

Enforced disappearances are a daily occurrence in Balochistan, with reports indicating that over 55,000 individuals are currently missing, and thousands have been discovered dead. Human rights organizations, such as the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances and Amnesty International, have consistently blamed Pakistani military forces and intelligence agencies for carrying out these abductions.
