The information presented below is based on reports that Amnesty International has received from Baloch civil society groups and credible media reports, since our latest press release of 26 October 2010, highlighting the issue of murder and torture of Baloch activists. Amnesty International has not been able to corroborate the details of each incident. However, we look to the government to conduct credible, impartial and transparent investigation into each allegation.

The emerging trends of alleged human rights violations in Balochistan are disturbing. As demonstrated by the below graphs, the reported disappearances and killings of Baloch activists in the recent months have increased.
