Pakistan's border politics helping Iran crush Baloch voices, BASC report reveals
Dec 05, 2025
A new report by the Baloch Advocacy and Studies Center (BASC) analysing human rights violations in Iran's Balochistan region has exposed alarming levels of state-sanctioned violence against the Baloch minority, pointing to Pakistan's indirect complicity through its cross-border economic and security ties with Tehran. The report, "Analyzing Patterns of Human Rights Violations in Balochistan, Iran," documents extrajudicial killings, mass detentions, and systemic discrimination that have turned the province into one of the most militarised regions in the country.
