Another BSO leader whisked away in Quetta

QUETTA: Another key leader of the Baloch Students’ Organisation (BSO-Azad), a student at the Balochistan University of Information Technology and Management Sciences (BUITMS), was whisked away, allegedly by intelligence agencies, on Friday.

“Qambar Chakar, the deputy organiser of BSO-Azad Quetta zone, was picked up by a group of intelligence agencies’ personnel who had rushed to the university in around eight vehicles,” Salam Sabir, the BSO central information secretary, told Daily Times. The BSO spokesman threatened of strikes across the province. Qambar is the third prominent BSO-Azad leader to be picked up, the spokesman said. He said BSO Quetta Zone President Shahzaib Baloch had been ‘disappeared’ in April and remained missing for two months. BSO Central Vice Chairman Zakir Majeed was also taken away last month, allegedly by the intelligence agencies, and is still missing, he added. BSO supporters on Friday surrounded the BUITMS campus in protest against Chakar’s arrest and threatened to shut all educational institutions in the city if he was not released immediately.
