Baloch Human Rights Council (BHRC) of Canada has questioned Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's silence on the death of Balochistan rights activist Karima Baloch.

In a statement on Thursday, BHRC-Canada said, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Liberal Party Government must provide a transparent and just response regarding the quest for justice in the case of Ms. Karima Baloch.

She dedicated her life to advocacy for the rights and freedom of Balochistan from tyranny and Pakistani military occupation. The BHRC-Canada spoke about Trudeau's speeches in the House of Commons regarding the death of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The statement said, Trudeau's conspicuous silence regarding the high-profile, unexplained death of Ms. Karima Baloch stands in stark contrast to his impassioned speeches in the House of Commons and extensive international media coverage concerning the death of Nijjar in Canada. 

It further said, this discrepancy raises concerns about the Canadian Government's consistency and fairness, particularly with regard to its handling of Balochistan's ongoing human rights violations by the Pakistan Army.
