Enforced disappearances in Pakistan

The practice of enforced disappearances has increased dramatically since Pakistan joined the US-led "war on terror" in 2001. Disappearances occur across the country but especially in Balochistan province in the south-west, which faces violence from ethnic and religious armed groups and state security forces. Activists, journalists, and students have been especially targeted and an increasing number have been found dead with their bodies showing signs of torture.
