Baloch Republican Party (BRP) central spokesman, Sher Mohammad Bugti informed that BRP UK Zone had held its annual session on Sunday to discuss past and future activities.

They also held a protest outside Prime Minister's Office to express solidarity with the families of missing persons who are on a hunger strike in Quetta Press Club.

The session was supervised by BRP Central leader Mansoor Baloch. While addressing the participants, he said, "Baloch people are in extreme situations. Our mothers and sisters have come out on the roads for their loved ones, but no one is ready to listen to them and share their sorrows."

Furthermore, Baloch asserted that enforced disappearances were escalating on a daily basis, and the recovery of mutilated dead bodies had become a daily occurrence.

"Baloch people from every intellectual field are being abducted. Enforced disappearances are violations of Pakistan's own constitution yet the media or the civil society takes up this issue," he added.

A number of Baloch intellectuals and activists have joined BRP praising the status of the party and have appreciated Nawab Brahumdagh Bugti's leadership.

Expressing their complete trust in Nawab Brahumdagh Bugti and BRP, the newly joined party activists stated that joining the caravan started by Father of the Nation, Shaheed Nawab Akbar Bugti, was a proud achievement by them and they pledged to work on his footsteps and highlight the Baloch cause in all possible forums.

Meanwhile, Jeeyand Baloch was elected as Vice President, while Shabeer Baloch was chosen as the Secretary-General of the BRP UK Zone Cabinet.
