Four Baloch students were allegedly taken by Pakistani security personnel from the hostel of Sindh Agriculture University in Tando Jam, Hyderabad, on 1 September, according to rights groups and fellow students.
Witnesses reported that plainclothes men entered the hostel and detained the students, who had travelled to Tando Jam from Uthal University’s Wadh campus as part of a research project at the Agriculture Department. Their whereabouts remain unknown.
The missing students have been named as:
Imran, son of Saifullah, resident of Wadh, Khuzdar
Aftab, son of Ghulam Mustafa, resident of Wadh, Khuzdar
Mehrullah, son of Muhammad Qasim, resident of Wadh, Khuzdar
Shoaib, son of Abdul Hai, resident of Surab district
Paank, the human rights wing of the Baloch National Movement (BNM), said the four were “forcibly disappeared by the Pakistan Army and intelligence agencies” and called on the authorities to ensure their safe release. The organisation added that 785 people have been forcibly disappeared in Balochistan so far in 2025, the majority of them students.
Baloch Voice for Justice, another advocacy group, also condemned the incident, saying the students were “taken by forces in plain clothes and moved to an unknown location” and warning that their fate remains uncertain.

Amnesty International has previously urged Pakistan to end the practice of enforced disappearances, describing it as a “heinous practice that must end,” while the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) has warned in a recent report that such cases “continue unabated” and are fuelling alienation in Balochistan.
