The people in Baluchistan have been demanding independence from Pakistan due to atrocities committed by the security forces and lack of development in the region.Majority of Baloch civilians living at both sides do not recognize the border and call it arbitrary line.
Thousands of Baloch people and activists have disappeared over the last decade after allegedly being abducted by state security forces with their bodies found later carrying signs of mutilation and torture.
Baloch nationalists see Pakistan as an occupier of their territory. Baluchistan is the poorest and the most underdeveloped region in Pakistan.
