Reports indicate that Faheem Ahmed, son of Saeed Ahmed, and Khadim Ali, son of Ali Ahmed, both students in the FSC (intermediate) program

Two students in Pakistan's Balochistan province have reportedly gone missing, prompting the families to stage a sit-in, while another person was detained by Frontier Corps (FC) forces during an attempt to disperse the protest, according to the Balochistan Post.
The report stated that Faheem Ahmed, son of Saeed Ahmed, and Khadim Ali, son of Ali Ahmed, both students in the FSC (intermediate) program, were reportedly taken by Pakistani forces and intelligence personnel from the Samungli Road area of Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, around 1 AM on the night between Friday and Saturday.
Following the students' disappearance, their families have blocked the Quetta-Karachi National Highway near Johan Cross Bazaar in Mangochar and are staging a sit-in. As a result, hundreds of vehicles and passengers have been stranded on both sides of the road.
The families claim that when the protestors resisted, FC forces attempted to disperse the sit-in, detaining another protester, Qudratullah, who was also reportedly forcibly disappeared.
The protesters have vowed to continue their demonstration until their relatives are recovered.
In another similar case, Salman, a farmer from Mastung, allegedly forcibly disappeared two days ago while traveling back from Mangochar to Mastung after meeting a friend.
According to the Balochistan Post, Aqil Jaleel, a resident of Panjgur Washbod, was released after being forcibly disappeared by Pakistani forces last week, following a four-day protest by his family.
Enforced disappearances in Balochistan have become a frequent issue, with both forced abductions and extrajudicial killings increasing this year, further escalating fear among locals. Human rights organizations continue to demand an end to such practices, calling on Pakistani authorities to ensure justice and accountability. However, despite such appeals, incidents of disappearances remain ongoing, leaving families in a state of anxiety and uncertainty.
