Baloch activists highlight Pakistani atrocities

Geneva (Switzerland), Mar 12 (ANI): Baloch activists have raised the issue of gross human rights violations in Balochistan by Pakistan Army and their proxy terror organizations during the ongoing 40th session of UN Human Rights Council here today. A conference titled "Balochistan of Pakistan - The Human Cost" was organized by Baloch Human Rights Council (UK) at a tent at Broken Chair, in front of the UNHRC. A hashtag #Balochgenocide was also launched during the event. The speakers including a Member of European Parliament and Baloch human rights activists demanded an end to state and non-state atrocities on the Baloch people. They highlighted the plight of the people of Balochistan in the face of unchecked and concentrated brutalities being perpetrated against them by the state security forces of Pakistan for the last many decades. The activists later organised a protest against Pakistan Army and demand an early intervention by the United Nations to stop genocide of Baloch people. T
