An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Quetta on Saturday remanded Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC) chief Mahrang Baloch and other organisers of the group to police custody for 20 days. The BYC chief's detention has once again been extended. In March, Mahrang and other members of the BYC were detained on charges of attacking Quetta Civil Hospital and provoking public unrest, following a police crackdown during their protest against alleged enforced disappearances. Mahrang is currently held at Hudda District Prison in Quetta under Section 3 of the MPO, a legal provision that allows authorities to arrest individuals deemed a threat to public peace.
