Hafeez Baloch was abducted after months of being threatened and harassed by a Pakistan Army Officer, Baloch Students Council Islamabad claimed.
According to the BSC-Islamabad, Hafeez Baloch was abducted by the Pakistani army after being threatened and harassed for several months by an Army Major known as Murtaza.

According to the BSC-Islamabad, Hafeez Baloch was constantly receiving threats and was being summoned to meet with Major Murtaza, but due to some personal engagements he couldn’t meet the Major.
Major Murtaza allegedly travelled all the way to the Quaid-e-Azam university in Islamabad to intimidate and harrass Hafeez Baloch, the students of the University said. They further said that Major Murataza also profiled Baloch students who were studying at the institution under the pretext of conducting research.
According to sources, Hafeez Baloch was forcibly abducted by the Pakistani forces while teaching at a private academy in Khuzdar on 8th February, 2022. He was on vacations in his hometown, where he was teaching the kids of his town in a private academy, in his free time.
