Writer And Activist Sarang Joyo Forcefully Abducted From Karachi
Young writer, researcher and socio-political
activist Sarang Joyo was abducted from his residency at Akhtar Colony, Karachi,
last night by men in plain clothes alleged to be men belonging to law enforcing
agencies.
In this regards Sarang’s father and
renowned writer and rights activist Mr. Taj Joyo claimed that Sarang went
missing from his residency at Akhtar Colony after men in plain clothes
forcefully entered his house and abducted him, he doubted that those men belonged
to law enforcing agencies.
Mr. Joyo claimed that Sarang was a
peaceful citizen, while he was participating in the protests held for the
immediate recovery of missing persons from Sindh and Balochistan at Karachi.
He said that from quite some time they
were getting threats via phone calls from unknown numbers, and last night they
abducted Sarang.
Mr. Joyo elaborated that peaceful
protest was constitutional right of every citizen in the country, but from long
time citizens were being deprived of that right.
“We are not terrorists, we believe in
peaceful and non-violent protests that is our right, if anyone is involved in
any criminal activity that person should be brought before the court law. In
this country Kulbashan Yadav, a verified Indian spy was given a counselor and
got chance to represent himself in court of law, but we Sindhis and Baloch are
deprived of that right. Law enforcing agencies are involved in forceful
disappearances of their own citizens,” Taj Joyo added.
Writers, political and rights’
activists including Shoukat Hussain Shoro, Hafeez Kumbhar, Jami Chandio,
Sindhoo Nawaz Ghangro, Ghulam Rasool Chandio, and others have showed their concerns on
forceful disappearance of Sarang Joyo and called it brutal act and clear violation
of basic human rights.They have demanded immediate recovery of Sarang Joyo.
It is pertinent to mention that from
quite some time Sarang Joyo along with his friends and supporters was doing
protest for recovery of forcefully disappeared persons from Sindh and
Balochistan, outside Karachi Press Club.
We strongly condemn against violation of human rights.
