Balochistan: Elders abducted, tortured and released

On 25th March, 2017, security forces attacked Kumbel area of Dasht district Kech, Balochistan.

According to the reports, during the military operation security forces forcibly demanded the Identity cards of the local residents of Kumbel to register them for census, as a process required for the census in the area. On the refusal of the villagers to comply with their demand, security forces abducted three elders of the village, 80 years old Pir Mohammed Dilshad, another 83 years old Mohammed Ali Noor Mohammed and 90 years old Dad Mohammed Hayat while they were laying on their bed due to weakness.

All three elders were released after several hours of torture.
