I protest and call upon World, Human Right commission and others to force Pakistani government & Balochistan government to take strict and serious action against target killing against minority Hazara ethnic group/ shia sect in Quetta Pakistan. This has been ongoing over few years and beside protests and appeals none of the govenment officials took any action. A couple well known terrorists were caught but fled mysteriously from a high profile prison Quetta City. Target killings increased after their escape yet government has done nothing beside making promises like always. Human Rights Commission should put pressure on Pakistani Government to place check posts in very well known areas where these attacks happen on regular basis, arrest the ones who are responsible and place strict security measures to ensure safety of minorities in future. Thanks

I have been reading every single comment posted here and the stories you are sharing are truly heartbreaking. Please know that your names are being included in the letters I am sending to the human rights organizations because this movement belongs to all of you.

I am honestly overwhelmed by the response to this cause because I never imagined so many people would join me in speaking up. This momentum belongs entirely to you and your willingness to care about the survival of the Hazara people. I am just a person who started a page but you are the ones turning it into something impossible to ignore.

The government is useless. They let killers escape prison and now we pay the price with our lives. Do something real for once.

Praying for peace in Quetta. Nobody deserves to live in fear like this just because of who they are.

Human rights commission needs to step in right now. The pakistani gov clearly wont fix this on their own.

TOTAL FAILURE BY THE AUTHORITIES. Where is the security? People are getting shot on the streets every week and nobody gets punished.

Enough is enough. My people are dying every single day while the gov just watches from the sidelines. Stop this madness.

This is absolutely heartbreaking. How can the world just turn a blind eye to constant target killings? Where is the justice for the Hazara families?
