QUETTA - A complete shutterdown strike was observed in Khuzdar district over non-recovery of missing persons and alleged involvement of Frontier Corps in whisking away Baloch youth.The strike call was given by the Baloch Asseran Bazyabi Committee to protest non-recovery of missing persons and FC’s involvement in alleged enforced disappearances of political activists. All the roads wore a deserted look and all small and big trading centres, banks, medical stores, restaurants and other establishments remained closed for a day. Life was paralysed in the city and people faced difficulties due to the strike and traffic was thin on the roads. It may be mentioned here that FC was blamed for its alleged involvement in picking up people and the Supreme Court few days back in its hearing in Quetta ordered FC IG to recover missing persons within 10 days.
