BALOCHISTAN: The mutilated body of a 15 years-old Baloch student has been found in Soraap area of Washuk in Balochistan on Monday(November 25, 2013).

Aoa,
ReplyDeleteMy purpose of writing you today is to ask you a question about the situation. Regarding kill and dump policy, I was wondering that whether you or any other Baloch party has ever contacted Peace Brigade International (PBI) for protective accompaniment of your workers and other activists in Balochistan?
It is an international organization that sends highly trained human rights observers at the request of local people to protect communities threatened by political establishment. It works on the premises of in the presence of international witnesses, political authorities hesistate in carrying out their atrocities. PBI has been successfully deployed and protect communities in Mexico, Guatemala, Nepal, Indonesia and other countries. They basically create a safe space for activists to carry out their non violent struggle.
PBI volunteers settle in threatened communities for long term working on the principle of non-interference and neutrality providing protection through their extensive communication network at international level that is mobilized at a rapid speed in case of an attack on the activists.
Kindly let me know of your opinion regarding deployment of PBI in Balochistan and whether it is feasible mobilize PBI for Baloch cause.
Waiting anxiously for your response.
Regards,
Saba
