ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf  (PTI) leader Javed Hashmi said on Tuesday said that security and intelligence agencies are responsible for the deteriorating situation of Balochistan, DawnNews reported.

Addressing the families of the missing persons, who have set up the camps outside the parliament house, Hashmi said that societies cannot be governed through violence.

“If security and intelligence agencies co operate and release the missing people, only then, this country could be saved, “PTI leader said.

“Now that the human rights issue in Pakistan is being raised internationally, a judicial activism should be launched to deal with this case.” Hashmi added.

He also announced that PTI chief Imran Khan would visit the camps very soon.
