June 22, 2026: The International Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (IVBMP) strongly condemns the extrajudicial custodial execution of Naga Bugti, a victim of enforced disappearance who was killed in custody and whose body was discarded in public by state authorities in Sui, district Dera Bugti.
Naga Bugti, son of Nozani Hotkani Bugti and a resident of Bugti Colony in Sui, was initially subjected to enforced disappearance by the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) in January 2026. According to local accounts and field testimonies, after months of unacknowledged illegal detention, Naga Bugti was executed in cold blood. His body was recovered 21 Jun 2026’s night from China Chowk in the center of Sui city. Local sources have named local CTD official Omar Khosa, military intelligence operative Major Faraz (ISI), as well as local collaborative elements Nabi Bakhsh (alias Major Hotkani) and Dilmurad Masuri as those directly involved in executing the operation.
The public discovery of Naga Bugti’s body has triggered deep distress and outrage across Sui, where residents were widely aware that he had been in the continuous custody of state security organs since his abduction in January. This incident represents a recurring, brutal practice colloquially known as the “kill-and-dump” policy, used systematically to eliminate Baloch political and social dissidents outside the framework of the law.
The brazen execution and public abandonment of a long-term detainee highlight a complete breakdown of constitutional protections and mirror a total absence of judicial oversight in Balochistan. The IVBMP reminds international entities that these state actions breach the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance and violate core human rights treaties signed by Pakistan.
Faced with this horrific escalation of extrajudicial state violence, the International Voice for Baloch Missing Persons appeals directly to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and international journalists to actively investigate this targeted killing.
The systemic deployment of extrajudicial mechanisms against disappeared persons must be met with severe diplomatic scrutiny, and the global human rights community must demand an end to the absolute military impunity that protects the perpetrators of these crimes.
The International Voice for Baloch Missing Persons extends its deepest condolences to the family of Naga Bugti and vows to continue presenting these documented crimes before international legal and political forums until justice is served.
