Dawn · Pakistan · Pakistan sentences BYC leader Dr. Mahrang Baloch to life imprisonment in a "faceless trial"
Dawn reports the Quetta ATC ruling factually, noting the case was linked to the death of an FC officer at the 2024 Gwadar protest, and that defendants boycotted a closed-door hearing inside Quetta jail; does not editorialize on political character but includes BYC's statement calling it a 'faceless trial.'
“An anti-terrorism court in Quetta sentenced BYC's chief organiser Dr Mahrang Baloch and central leader Sibghatullah Shahji to life imprisonment in a closed-door hearing inside the jail, which the defendants and lawyers had boycotted as a 'faceless trial.'”
