Jaffar Express Train Attacked: A strange incident occurred at the Civil Hospital in Quetta, the provincial capital of Balochistan, when Baloch protesters forcibly entered the hospital and ran away with several bodies. The incident took place during a demonstration by the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), an organization led by controversial Baloch rights activist Maharang Baloch.
These protesters were members of the family of the missing persons who were seeking permission from the authorities to identify their loved ones. However, officials said that the protesters entered the morgue without permission and forcibly took five bodies with them. It is not yet clear whether the bodies were identified or not, but according to the local administration, the bodies were of the militants of the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) who recently attacked the Jafar Express in Bollan.
Baloch Liberation Army and Jafar Express Attack
The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) is a restricted militant group, active in the Balochistan region of Pakistan. Recently, this group attacked the Jafar Express passenger train, in which many people lost their lives. After this, many rebels were killed in military action. After this incident, the bodies belonging to BLA were brought to the Civil Hospital in Quetta. The protesters gathered outside the hospital and demanded the identity of the missing persons, but the situation was out of control when the protesters forcibly entered the hospital morgue and took five bodies with them.
Demonstrations of protesters and police
According to the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), these protesters went to the hospital to see those bodies to ensure that they are not of their loved ones. A member of BYC said that he was trying to reach the mortuary for two days, but he was not being allowed by the police. After the incident, the police started raids in various parts of Quetta. Three bodies were recovered during the raids conducted in areas like Sariyab Road and Secretariat Chowk, and many have been detained.
The role of Maharang Baloch and Baloch Yakjehti Committee
Baloch rights activist Maharang Baloch is under the leadership of this entire movement. His organization is active in the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (byc) in Balochistan about the issue of missing persons. According to sources, Maharang Baloch and Byc are accused of forming an alliance with BLA, and the government of Pakistan is investigating their role.
Missing persons issue
