Dr Mahrang Baloch, activist for disappeared men, faces life in jail

Dr. Mahrang Baloch, a well-known activist from Pakistan's south-western province of Balochistan, is reportedly facing a potential life sentence. Her advocacy for victims of enforced disappearances began in her teenage years, following the alleged arrest and subsequent death of her own father at the hands of security forces. Baloch, a doctor by profession, emerged as a leading voice in a movement demanding accountability and answers regarding numerous disappearances across the province. The current legal proceedings against her represent a critical juncture in her ongoing campaign for human rights in the region.
