In Quetta, students of Bolan Medical College stage a sit-in for the third consecutive day, seeking answers on Khadija Baloch's disappearance. Baloch, a seventh-semester BS Nursing student, was reportedly taken from the college hostel by security personnel, with her location still unknown, fueling students' concern.

Protesters, undeterred by alleged intimidation from authorities, demand transparency and her appearance in court. They criticize the lack of an FIR or formal charges despite official assertions that her detention was lawful. A government official claims evidence ties her to militant activities.

Khadija's parents, during a press briefing, rejected government statements, alleging coercion into false confessions. The Baloch Yakjehti Committee condemned the handling of the protest, emphasizing surveillance and repression of participants. They urge public and international intervention against systemic abuses.
