Notably, the long march started in Turbat after the extra judicial killing of Balach Baloch with other three in a fake encounter of Counter Terrorism Department (CTD). The authorities handed over the bodies to the families. However, Balaach's family did not accept the body and took the body to Shaheed Fida Chowk where protests are held, The Friday Times reported.
Balaach's family requested that the city police to accept their FIR. However, the police refused to register the FIR. Then, the protestors increased and they took the protest to different areas of Turbat to let the residents join the protest, The Friday Times reported. However, this protest changed into a long march demanding end to Baloch genocide. Under Baloch Yakjahti Committee - Kech, the protestors announced a long march against the Baloch genocide.
However, as soon as they reached Islamabad, police personnel launched a crackdown against the protesters and dismantled their camps set up outside the National Press Club.
