Who would’ve thought history would take such a turn where Africa will shut its borders to the rest of the world? Scientists say it started because a man ate a sick bat. And now we have the entire human race running for its life. With all the science and millennia of knowledge to cure illnesses ...
تئو، اڑئے چه کرئونایا مسترێن ٹاپکے اتۓ. دردناکتِرێن. چۆ گندۓ دنیاۓ وشترێن گپ و چیز بتئورێننت، نون ما انچُش اتێن ساجد. نون ما کُدَگا اتێن. نون یکّے دومیۓ چمّانی تها چارت کنگا نه‌اتێن. چیا که هر کسی چمّانی درد پوره گێشتر اَت. نون ما سِدان اتێن. نون ما اێوک بئیان اتێن… نون ما درامد بئیان ...
After words of taunt over a Coronavirus ward were seemingly not conveying the right images, leaders in Balochistan on Thursday started an emoji war. Current and former chief ministers, MPAs and spokesmen all took part. They laughed, cried and rolled on the floor, while Twitter watched. It began with poetry. “This is just really sad,” ...
I had always thought of Balochistan as a land of poets and storytellers until I was introduced to yet another perspective the other day. “Balochistan is the land of lucky people,” said my local Pakistani shopkeeper here in Germany with an envious smirk. “All of the Baloch get asylum here.” The perspective of the lucky ...
Uzair Baloch was on Monday produced before an antiterrorism court after Pakistan army handed him over to the prison authorities. He had been in the army’s custody for three years. Uzair Baloch is the last living boss of the decades-long Lyari Gang War. All his friends — and enemies — have over the years been ...
Nothing stops the Pakistani army from violating the Baloch people’s rights, not even natural calamities. There have been reports of enforced disappearances in Balochistan on a daily basis despite a call from the United Nations to stop armed activity during the ongoing global pandemic. The army in fact tries to cash in on natural disasters ...

The news of Sajid Hussain’s disappearance in Sweden is awfully shocking. He is someone who uses his pen to highlight the issue of Balochistan’s missing persons, who are abducted and killed by Pakistan’s powerful military. The very reason he was forced to become a refugee was to avoid the evident risk of being added to ...
A letter to Sajid Hussain Hello Guru! Let’s make one thing clear. If you are expecting that I will write an eulogy or another emotional piece, you are wrong. I think you remember very well once I told you: “Nothing excites me anymore”. Honestly, when I said that, I was imagining becoming as cold as ...
