Balochistan Human Rights Group (BHRG)

Balochistan Human Rights Group (BHRG) is an independent human rights organization dedicated to documenting, monitoring, and advocating against serious human rights violations in Balochistan, with a particular focus on the use of the death penalty, extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, and unfair trials.

The organization works to collect and verify information on death sentences, executions, and related due process violations affecting individuals from Balochistan.

BHRG places special emphasis on cases involving political prisoners, ethnic and religious minorities, juveniles, and individuals convicted following torture, coerced confessions, or proceedings that fall short of international fair-trial standards.

BHRG engages in research, documentation, and reporting, and collaborates with international human rights mechanisms, civil society organizations, lawyers, journalists, and families of victims to amplify voices from Balochistan that are often marginalized or silenced.

The group also contributes to advocacy efforts aimed at raising international awareness, promoting accountability, and advancing compliance with international human rights law, including the abolition of the death penalty.
