Camp for missing persons burnt in Quetta

QUETTA: Unidentified people Wednesday night set fire to a camp established here for the recovery of missing persons.

The camp, set up by the Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VBMP) near Quetta Press Club on Shahrah-e-Adalat, aims to advocate for the recovery of missing persons.

According to the VBMP Vice Chairman Mama Qadeer Baloch, unknown people set the camp ablaze once again last night. Just days earlier, an attempt had been made to burn the camp, but this time, the damage was more severe, with three sides completely destroyed by the fire.

Mama Qadeer called for action against those responsible for the arson. However, no police report has yet been filed for the incident.

A delegation of the National Party, led by Provincial President Aslam Baloch, visited the camp to express solidarity and condemn the arson.

The National Party leaders emphasized that VBMP was a peaceful organization that had been conducting its protest camp for 6,000 days.
