We were glad when Canadian authorities issued my sister Karima Baloch a visa due to her political activism in Balochistan and the threats to her life by the Pakistan army. We were thankful because, after years of hardships for our family and Balochistan, a Western progressive country recognised her work. We thought she would now ...
On Thursday, thousands of people rallied to the Karachi Press Club to pay tributes to Karima Baloch and also demanded a thorough investigation into her death under circumstances that her family says are suspicious. The protesters called on Canada to carry out a deeper probe and ensure the truth is uncovered. They held pictures of ...

The decision to fence Gwadar has given validity to the concerns of Baloch people that Pakistan’s rulers have always seen Balochistan as a region of opportunities, but unfortunately not for the real inhabitants of the land.
