February 20, 2026 — Surab, Balochistan Taimoor, son of Imam Bakhsh, a 26-year-old farmer and resident of Surab, was forcibly disappeared on February 9, 2026. After days in custody, his body was dumped today. His body bore severe signs of torture.
When anyone in Balochistan is forcibly disappeared, families fear not only disappearance but also the possibility of inhumane treatment. In many such cases, victims are subjected to severe torture, Visible injuries, including marks consistent with drilling and extreme physical abuse, point toward prolonged custodial torture before their death and their bodies are dumped. Even in death, dignity is denied, as bodies are often left in open spaces rather than handed over to the families.
On the other hand, Taimoor was a farmer earning his livelihood through hard work, and his case was also submitted to the UN working group by BYC. Yet he was extrajudicially killed,d and such acts constitute grave violations of international human rights law, including Article 6 (Right to Life) and Article 7 (Prohibition of Torture) of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), as well as the Convention Against Torture (CAT), which strictly prohibits torture under all circumstances.
The continued recovery of tortured bodies highlights the seriousness of the human rights situation in Balochistan. The silence of many human rights institutions in the face of repeated incidents raises urgent questions about accountability and protection. Every human life carries equal value. International human rights frameworks affirm that every individual has the inherent right to live with dignity and security. We once again urge international organisations, legal bodies, and human rights defenders to raise their voices for every life. Because Baloch lives matter.
