A key Baloch activist called a “shutter-down strike” across Pakistan on January 3 against alleged rights abuses and “genocide” after caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar ul Haq Kakar slammed week-long protests in Islamabad as support for “terrorists” and blamed India’s intelligence agency RAW for fomenting trouble in the restive region. The strike call was issued Tuesday by Mahrang Baloch, who has been leading the Islamabad stir by hundreds, mostly women, against alleged “enforced disappearances” and “genocide” of innocent Baloch people at the hands of Pakistan’s security agencies.
