Earlier on Tuesday, four young Baloch men were reported missing in Karachi amid the ongoing atrocities and enforced disappearances in Balochistan by Pakistani armed forces.

Reports indicate that Pakistani forces allegedly detained these four young men following a raid on a hotel in Karachi. The detainees have been identified as Zain Baloch, Zareef Ahmed, Akram Baloch, and Anees Baloch, all residents of Panjgur, as reported by The Balochistan Post.

The Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) confirmed the incident, stating that the four individuals are from the Parom area of Panjgur City and were staying in a hotel in Saddar, Karachi, for medical treatment. Eyewitnesses reported that Karachi Police and officials in civilian clothing raided the hotel, tortured both the hotel manager and the victims, and took the manager with them. Although the manager was later released, the four young men remain missing. (ANI)
