Sajid Baloch went missing on March 2 this year while traveling to the Swedish city of Uppsala. While journalists from Pakistan were living in exile in Sweden, they continued to write articles on alleged human rights violations and social injustices in their country.
He was last seen in Sweden as he boarded a train to go to the Swedish capital Stockholm to Uppsala to collect the keys to his new apartment. No details of where and under what circumstances he disappeared. Swedish police are continuing their investigation.
The disappearance of Sajid Baloch was registered by Swedish police the following day, March 3. After registering the complaint, the police have started their routine investigation. Police have not made public information about how much progress has been made so far or the evidence that has been collected.
The surprising disappearance of Sajid Baloch has taken the form of a mystery and even the slightest ray of light does not appear in the shadowed darkness. In this case, the Swedish authorities face severe criticism from human rights activists and international journalism circles. Reporters Without Borders, a Paris-based journalist organization, have been keeping a close eye on the matter.
Relatives of the missing journalist say Swedish authorities have not yet taken the disappearance seriously and are in serious danger to their lives. Sajid Baloch's brother, Wajid Baloch, told DW that the entire family was deeply disturbed by this shocking incident and expressed their gratitude at the slow investigation process.
Wajid Baloch also says that if anything happens to his brother, then Swedish police will face charges of negligence because their attention has been repeatedly drawn to the seriousness of the situation. ۔ So far, Swedish police have not released a statement about the disappearance of Sajid Baloch.
Reporters Without Borders, on the other hand, say that there is a possibility of the abduction of Sajid Baloch, who wrote an article on the human rights situation in Pakistan. Apparently, no information or information about the kidnappers has been considered particularly difficult. Some angry Pakistani circles are pointing fingers at the country's powerful army. Sajid Baloch left refugees in Sweden during the resistance movement in the Balochistan province of Pakistan in 2017.
