Pakistani Army planning Guantanamo-like centres in Balochistan: Report
Reports suggest that the Pakistani Army plans to establish internment centers in Balochistan, modeled after facilities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, reminiscent of Guantanamo Bay or 'black sites' in Afghanistan. Critics fear these centers could formalize enforced disappearances and human rights abuses. Former senator Farhatullah Babar has expressed concern, highlighting the potential for indefinite detention without trial. Rights groups allege thousands have already disappeared in Balochistan. The Pakistani government has not publicly addressed these claims, and the formalization of such centers could exacerbate regional instability.
