Aomar Karim – Political and Human rights activist
Who I Am
My name is Aomar Karim — a political and human rights activist committed to amplifying the voices of the Baloch people and defending fundamental freedoms.
In 2018, I was forced to flee Pakistan after my political and human rights activities in Balochistan placed my life at serious risk. My work exposed human rights violations, challenged injustices, and called for political freedoms — actions which drew threats from those seeking to silence me.
I moved to Dubai, but the environment for Baloch activists there was unsafe, with many being illegally deported to Pakistan. Fearing for my safety, I sought refuge in the United Kingdom in 2022, where I now live in exile.

7: European Parliament member seeks answers from UAE ambassador on Rashid Hussain’s extradition
In the UK, I continue my advocacy, engaging with Members of Parliament, human rights organisations, and political activists to highlight ongoing abuses in Balochistan, including extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, and the suppression of free expression.
I campaign under the slogans #BalochLivesMatter and Stand Up for Human Rights in Balochistan, determined to be a voice for those who cannot speak out. My mission is clear: to secure safety here in the UK and to ensure that the plight of the Baloch nation is heard internationally.
✊ Human Rights Work
I actively advocate for human rights, focusing on the Baloch community and other marginalised groups. My work highlights:
- Freedom of speech
- Political oppression
- Displacement and exile
- Social justice movements
Through journalism, digital platforms, and collaborations, I aim to raise awareness and inspire action.
