The Baloch Women Forum (BWF) has strongly condemned the reported enforced disappearance of Mahjabeen Baloch, a 24-year-old student from Basima, who was allegedly taken by security forces from Civil Hospital Quetta on Wednesday, as per a report by The Balochistan Post (TBP), reported the ANI.

According to the BWF, Mahjabeen, who studies Library Science at the University of Balochistan, was abducted around 3 a.m. by personnel from the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) and Military Intelligence (MI), stated by TBP, according to the ANI.

Meanwhile, the forum described the incident as part of a troubling pattern in which Baloch women are increasingly being targeted by state entities. "Baloch women, like their male counterparts, face constant danger from state agencies," the BWF said in an official statement, the news agency reported.
