What’s happening in Karachi’s schools—children being taught to lynch people—is a direct result of the #mullahmilitaryalliance's influence!
The joy in these kids’ faces as they learn such brutality highlights the deep corruption of the system.

Five years since Sohail and Fasih vanished from Balochistan University. Pakistan's authorities apparently need more than five years to answer one simple question: Where are the students? What an impressive display of state accountability! 1/2

If there are charges, file them. Or does #Pakistan's justice system now operate on the principle: disappear first, answer never?

Pakistan’s democracy seems to come with a uniformed supervisor. Civilian governments may hold office, but military interference in politics, judicial affairs and dissent keeps raising the question: who really calls the shots? #Pakistan 1/
Pakistan finds billions for defence, yet basic rights, minority protection and public welfare remain pressing challenges. Generals may command the institutions, but who answers for the ordinary citizens left paying the price? 2/
Solitary confinement is the ultimate admission of weakness by an authoritarian setup. By keeping Imran Khan isolated and silencing political opposition, the Pakistani establishment only proves that its authority relies on coercion, not consent.
Ever seen Pakistan’s politicians or elite queue for free food, subsidised fuel or relief packages? Neither have we. Those queues are apparently reserved for ordinary citizens—waiting for “favours” that should have been basic rights. 1/

Charity keeps people alive, but it can also keep failed institutions comfortable. Why fix governance when handing out food creates better headlines? The citizen gets a ration bag; the system gets another excuse to avoid accountability. 3/
The unchecked, blind use of power in Balochistan is a textbook example of what happens when a state completely surrenders its democratic institutions to military hegemony.
طاقت کا اندھا استعمال ۔۔۔ ریاستی اداروں کی کارکردگی کی مکمل تباہی سب سے زیادہ سیکیورٹی، قانون نافذ کرنے والے اداروں اور عدلیہ میں نظر آتی ہے۔

When security forces and intelligence agencies operate entirely above the law—executing enforced disappearances, crushing peaceful dissent, and operating with absolute impunity—the state’s own core machinery dissolves.
How many times must Baloch protesters face violence before Pakistan’s military learns that peaceful dissent is not a crime? Baloch mothers, women, and young people deserve protection, not bullets.
Amnesty International has launched an urgent petition to free human rights lawyers Imaan Mazari and Hadi Ali Chattha, who are trapped in a vicious revolving-door detention by the Pakistani state
ایمنسٹی انٹرنیشنل نے ایمان مزاری اور ان کے شوہر ہادی علی چٹھہ کی رہائی کے لیے دستخطی مہم شروع کی ہے۔ چند لمحے نکال کر یہ فارم دستخط کریں اور اس مہم کو زیادہ سے زیادہ پھیلائیں۔ تمام دستخطوں کے ساتھ ایک خط وزیراعظم پاکستان کو بھیجا جائے گا۔

After being handed outrageous sentences for social media posts criticizing the military, the Supreme Court finally granted them bail.
After 13 long years of waiting for her forcibly disappeared husband, Ali, another Baloch woman has passed away without ever receiving closure or justice.
Enforced disappearances in Balochistan are a slow, systematic campaign of state-sponsored torture against entire families.
سفر علی کی جبری گمشدگی کو آج 13 سال مکمل ہوجائیں گے، سفر کی بیوی نیم بیوگی کا درد لئے اس جہان سے کوچ کر گئی۔ایسی سینکڑوں مائیں بہنیں بچے ہیں جو اپنے پیاروں کی جبری گشدگی کے عذاب سے گزر رہے ہیں التجا ہے مظلوموں کے لئے آواز اٹھائیں

From Kothian to Rawalakot, the people of PoJK are standing up against systemic neglect and exploitation. For 4 months, grassroots protests have echoed across the valleys, demanding basic human rights, fair utility prices & true justice. #KashmirProtests
