Sindh Human Rights Defenders Network is deeply concerned about the recent abduction of Jibran Nasir and Manzoor Laghari.

Enforced disappearance is frequently used as a strategy to spread terror within society. The feeling of insecurity and fear it generates is not limited to the close relatives of the disappeared, but also affects communities and society as a whole.

The state must guarantee in all circumstances that HRDs are able to carry out their legitimate human rights activities without any fear of reprisal.
