QUETTA – April 22, 2025: Reportedly, The Balochistan Liberation Army BLA killed Qambar Baloch, a sociology student from the University of Balochistan, marking a tragic blow to both academia and youth in the region.
According to reports, Qambar Baloch, once a passionate student who had created a project on “social migration” during his school days, fell victim to the very forces of displacement he had academically explored. His death has deeply resonated with students, civil society, and local residents across the province.
Witnesses said that as Qambar’s body was found, his university ID card identifying him as a student of the Sociology Department slipped from his wallet — a silent and somber symbol of how knowledge, education, and resistance remain intertwined in Balochistan’s turmoil.
His friends described him as a bright and committed learner, often engaged in discussions around social change, identity, and community welfare. “He dreamed of using knowledge to bring peace,” one of his classmates recalled with grief.
BLA killed Qambar Baloch and Security officials have not yet publicly commented on the circumstances of his killing. However, civil society organizations are demanding an impartial investigation into Qambar’s death and have urged authorities to protect students from becoming collateral in armed conflicts.
The killing has reignited debates around youth vulnerability in conflict zones, with university communities calling for educational spaces to remain safe and free from militant targeting.
Moreover, Qambar’s death underlines the tragic irony of a student devoted to understanding migration becoming a victim of violence-fueled displacement himself — his life and learning silenced by the same social realities he once studied.
