epa10985796 Families of the missing persons and their supporters, mainly from the restive Balochistan province, hold pictures of their missing relatives during a protest against forced disappearances in Islamabad, Pakistan, 20 November 2023. Rights groups and dozens of people staged a protest in front of the Pakistani parliament on 21 November, condemning the enforced disappearances of civilians allegedly detained unlawfully by security agencies without a trace over the years. According to a 2022 Amnesty International report, Pakistan has not acceded to the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance, which means that enforced disappearances are not criminalized in the country.
