The Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) has issued a strong accusation against the Pakistani army, alleging suppression of peaceful movements and continued human rights abuses and Baloch genocide in Balochistan. According to the BYC spokesperson, the army fears the strength and peaceful resistance of the Baloch community.

In a recently released statement, the BYC spokesperson condemned the Pakistani army's stance against political and human rights movements, claiming it is an indication of the state's direct involvement in the Baloch genocide and human rights abuses. The spokesperson alleged that the army and intelligence agencies have consistently been responsible for severe infractions in the region.

With thousands protesting against the Baloch genocide and demanding an end to such atrocities, the spokesperson criticized a recent army press conference aimed at discrediting the peaceful political movement. The spokesperson called on the army to establish an impartial inquiry committee, potentially involving a neutral third party or human rights organization, to investigate the allegations against the Baloch Solidarity Committee.

The spokesperson challenged the Pakistani army, stating they would submit to any court's jurisdiction if the allegations were proven true. Conversely, if the allegations were unfounded, the army should admit to the Baloch genocide and accept punishment. The BYC emphasized that their movement is a peaceful political struggle with significant public support across Balochistan.

The BYC spokesperson argued that the state's resistance to the peaceful struggle is a testament to Pakistan's long-standing rule by force rather than tolerance for political dissent. They noted that exposing the dire conditions and oppressive rule in Balochistan is critical for their cause.

The BYC affirmed their commitment to intensifying their struggle against the Baloch genocide, relying on the people's power and rejecting the army's external dependencies. The spokesperson declared that the BYC's resolve is rooted in principle and ideology, aiming to reveal the grim reality of Balochistan's plight to the world.
