Quetta, Feb 6 (NationPress) Prominent Baloch human rights advocate, Mir Yar Baloch, on Friday warned the Norwegian Government against welcoming Pakistan's former caretaker Prime Minister Anwar ul Haq Kakar and Balochistan's so-called "puppet" Chief Minister Sarfaraz Bugti during their planned visit from February 15-17, alleging them of human rights abuses.

The activist claimed that the Pakistani officials visiting Norway under the guise of a "briefing" on Balochistan are associated with Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and have collaborated with terrorist organizations such as Al-Qaida and ISIS, being complicit in the alleged genocide of the Baloch population.

According to Mir, both Anwar and Sarfaraz are directly involved with the ISI in the abduction, torture, and execution of Baloch civilians, as well as the disposal of their bodies in mass graves. They are said to facilitate Pakistan's unlawful occupation, exploiting Baloch resources while financing terrorist groups like Al-Qaida and ISIS, posing a significant threat to global security.

Further, the activist accused them of closely coordinating with Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and being implicated in the assassination of opposition figures and societal leaders.

“Their presence in Oslo could lead to attacks on Baloch diplomats and promote terrorism linked to IRGC, ISIS, and Al-Qaida, which is supported by Pakistan's ISI and military,” Mir emphasized.

The human rights defender urged the Norwegian government to cancel all engagements with the Pakistani leaders, labeling them as "traitors and religious terrorists".

He warned that inaction could jeopardize both Norwegian and global security, stating, “Pakistan shelters terrorists with military backing; do not be deceived. Safeguard global security by rejecting these criminals.”

Earlier, on Thursday, Baloch National Movement (BNM) Chairman Naseem Baloch expressed his apprehension regarding the imminent visit of Anwar and Sarfaraz to Norway, indicating that this should not be viewed as standard diplomacy given the serious allegations of human rights violations against them.

“Both individuals are largely responsible for severe human rights violations in Balochistan, including enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and collective punishment, which many Baloch human rights advocates and international observers classify as crimes against humanity and acts of genocide,” Naseem highlighted.

“Particularly concerning are their established connections to Shafeeq Mengal, a notorious pro-state militia leader known for operating armed death squads under the auspices of the Pakistani military,” he added.

Naseem urged that Norway, a nation respected for its dedication to human rights, international law, and peace promotion, must not permit its territory to be exploited to "whitewash atrocities or normalize war criminals".

He underscored that the Norwegian government, legislators, media, and civil society have a moral and legal obligation to interrogate these officials about enforced disappearances, mass graves, and extrajudicial killings in Balochistan, demand clarifications about their affiliations with armed militias and death squads, and inquire why perpetrators are shielded from justice while victims' families are denied the truth.
