In a move that has sparked outrage among rights groups, the latest court hearing of Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) chief Mahrang Baloch and her fellow activists was held inside Quetta District Jail rather than the designated Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC)
Leading Baloch human rights body, the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), has organised a three-day sit-in protest in front of the Turbat Press Club against the illegal detention of its key leaders, the BYC said on Thursday.
The family of detained Baloch leader Mahrang Baloch has accused prison authorities at Quetta's Hudda Jail of deliberately obstructing legal processes and harassing them during a scheduled visit, as reported by The Balochistan Post.
Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), a human rights organisation, has categorically rejected the "baseless and defamatory" allegations made by the Pakistani Army, accusing the BYC and its leader, Mahrang Baloch, of involvement in terrorism and foreign-sponsored activities.
