Amir Baloch, BRP president, South Korea chapter said, "The way atrocities are being committed against the people in Balochistan, there are incidents of enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings.

"More than 20,000 people in Balochistan are missing and some 10,000 were found dead with mutilated bodies. We seriously condemn this heinous act. We request the United Nations, European Union and international orgzations to take notice of human rights violations in Balochistan," said Amir Baloch while addressing the protest.
