NASIR BALOCH:

Pakistan is a cruel country that is suppressing us. Look, they took our daughters away from us, they beat them, I lost my glasses, two people tied me up and made me fall. My glasses were lost, there is no excuse for it. Nobody listens to us. It is a cruel country, may God destroy it.

SAEED AHMED:

On September 20, 2013, FC (Frontier Corps) and Jinnah Town Police (in Quetta City) picked him up at 2am and he is still missing.
