Pakistan: Baloch students continue sit-in at Quaid-i-Azam University against enforced disappearances
Baloch students at Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU) in Islamabad recently staged a sit-in protest, demanding the safe recovery of their missing people.
They demonstrated against “systemic racial profiling and harassment” faced by Baloch students in universities across the Pakistani capital.
The demonstration was organised by the QAU chapter of the Baloch Students’ Council (BSC) Islamabad.
It is a representative body of Baloch students in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Peshawar.
They are demanding immediate recovery of Saeed Baloch, a seventh-semester student at QAU’s Department of Strategic Studies, and Feroz Baloch, a student at Arid University in Rawalpindi.
