IVBMP, According to reports, on 5 March 2026, three young men were directly targeted and killed by a state-backed death squad in the Kalri area of Paroom, Panjgur.
The victims were identified as Umar Jan Baloch , son of Ali, aged 19 years; Zakir Baloch, son of Ubdain, aged 20 Years; and Niaz Baloch, son of Haji Allah Bakhsh, aged 20 years. All three were residents of Sabzal Bazar, Paroom, Tehsil of Panjgur District. They worked as drivers near the border area to support their families and meet their needs.
According to reports, after the incident their bodies were taken to the Paroom military camp. Authorities later contacted the families and asked them to receive the bodies. When the families arrived at the camp, they were pressured by security personnel to sign documents claiming that the victims had been involved in anti-state activities and labelling them as “terrorists.”
The families reportedly refused to sign the documents, rejecting the allegations. On 6 March 2026, the bodies of the three young men were handed over to their families.
The cruelties in Balochistan are a bone to be picked, causing serious concerns among the Baloch for their safety. International organizations must take urgent notice of these inhumane acts.
