Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfaraz Bugti constituted on Saturday a parliamentary committee to address the issue of missing persons in the province. The committee will be headed by the Interior Minister Zia Lango.

Members of the parliamentary committee include Rahmat Saleh Baloch, Asghar Tareen, Mina Majid Baloch, Prince Agha Umar Ahmadzai, and Home Secretary Zahid Saleem Khan.

The parliamentary committee will submit its report to the provincial government on the recovery of missing persons and other related matters.

The development comes moments after the provincial government said there were “unconfirmed rumours of firing by security forces” in Mastung.

The Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) is set to hold a gathering in Gwadar on Sunday, where leaders of different political parties and rights activists from across the country are expected to attend and discuss the issue of enforced disappearances.

The organisation has been posting updates on social media about supporters departing from various parts to head towards Gwadar.
