Abdul Qadeer Baloch (), better known as Mama Qadeer () is a Baloch rights activist hailing from the Balochistan province of Pakistan. Qadeer came to national and international prominence in 2013 when he traveled more than 2000 kilometers from Balochistan to Islamabad along with other Baloch men and women to protest against the issue of Baloch missing persons. Qadeer's own son, Jalil, was found dead in 2009, presumably killed by Pakistan's security agencies. In March 2015, Qadeer was barred from leaving the country from Karachi Airport at the last minute. He was traveling to New York to participate in a human rights conference to highlight the plight of Baloch people and the issue of missing Baloch persons. On April 9, 2015, Qadeer was scheduled to give a talk titled "Unsilencing Balochistan" in an event at the Lahore University of Management Sciences. The event was cancelled at the last minute by the administration citing ''"order from government"'' as the reason behind the cancellation. The incident was followed by protests from the students and faculty of the institute against the ''"academic censorship"''. The cancellation also created an uproar on the social media in Pakistan. Following the cancellation, an event titled 'Unsilencing Balochistan Take 2: In Conversation with Mama Qadeer, Farzana Baloch & Mir Mohammad Ali Talpur' was held at T2F Karachi. Following the event, Sabeen Mahmud, the director of T2F, was shot dead by unidentified assailants. ==See also== * Balochistan conflict * Human rights in Pakistan * Human rights violations in Balochistan 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mama Qadeer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
