Shocking Revelations: Baloch Women Forum Uncovers 20 Extrajudicial Killings by Pakistani Forces in June

In a deeply disturbing revelation, the Baloch Women Forum has disclosed a series of extrajudicial killings allegedly carried out by Pakistani security forces in Balochistan during the month of June 2025. The report, which has sent shockwaves through human rights circles, documents at least 20 unlawful executions and highlights the escalating repression faced by Baloch civilians. The group has called on the global community to urgently step in and halt the ongoing atrocities.

Alarming Pattern of Extrajudicial Killings

According to the Baloch Women Forum, the 20 cases of extrajudicial killings documented this month are only the tip of the iceberg. Victims include young students, political activists, and civilians accused without evidence. These individuals were reportedly abducted from their homes or public areas, held without trial, and later found dead — many showing signs of torture.

The forum has been collecting eyewitness accounts and testimonies from families, and the pattern they present points to systematic abuse by the Pakistani military and intelligence agencies operating in the region.

Baloch Women Forum Demands Accountability

The Baloch Women Forum, known for amplifying voices of the oppressed in Balochistan, stated in its official communication that these extrajudicial killings are “not isolated incidents but part of a deliberate campaign to silence dissent and resistance.” They urged human rights watchdogs, including the UN and Amnesty International, to launch independent investigations.

“We are documenting stories of families shattered, lives stolen, and communities silenced. These are war crimes, and the world must not remain a silent spectator,” said a spokesperson for the forum.

Victims Include Students and Activists

Among the victims identified are university students, minority ethnic Baloch youth, and even a 16-year-old boy whose body was reportedly dumped near a military checkpoint. These stories add to the growing body of evidence that extrajudicial executions have become normalized in Balochistan, with no legal recourse for the victims’ families.

The Baloch Women Forum emphasized that most families of the deceased live in constant fear and face pressure not to speak out. Many are threatened or detained when they seek justice, further underscoring the need for international monitoring and advocacy.

Human Rights Crisis Worsens in Balochistan

The worsening human rights situation in Balochistan is drawing international condemnation, albeit slow and limited. Experts warn that without robust international pressure, these extrajudicial killings will continue unchecked, deepening the humanitarian crisis in the region.

The forum stressed that the actions of Pakistani forces constitute violations of both domestic law and international human rights treaties, and warned of the potential for long-term instability if the international community continues to overlook the situation.

Global Community Urged to Intervene

In its plea, the Baloch Women Forum called upon the United Nations, the International Criminal Court, and world leaders to recognize the crisis in Balochistan as a matter of urgent global concern. The Forum also requested asylum provisions for families of victims and better monitoring of Pakistan’s military operations in restive provinces.

“The silence of the global community is allowing these extrajudicial killings to persist,” the statement read. “We urge democratic nations to uphold the values they preach — justice, transparency, and the protection of fundamental human rights.”

Final Thoughts

The exposure of 20 new extrajudicial killings in June alone by the Baloch Women Forum is a grim reminder of the deepening crisis in Balochistan. As more voices from the region come forward with harrowing accounts of abuse, the world must decide whether it will continue to ignore these crimes or finally take action to hold the perpetrators accountable.
