Pakistan witnessed a total of 432 violence-related fatalities and 370 injuries during the first quarter of 2024, stemming from 245 incidents of terror attacks and counter-terror operations, The Express Tribune reported on April 1 quoting the Centre for Research and Security Studies (CRSS) report. The figure includes 281 fatalities among civilians and Security Forces (SFs) personnel. According to the report, the provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Balochistan bore the brunt of this violence, accounting for over 92% of all fatalities and 86% of attacks during this period. The report underscores significant regional variations in the intensity of violence, with KP and Balochistan emerging as epicentres of conflict. While other regions experienced relative peace, with fatalities accounting for less than 8% of the total. Balochistan experienced a staggering 96% surge in violence during the first quarter of 2024 and fatalities doubled from 91 to 178. Similarly, Sindh witnessed a nearly 47% rise in violence, albeit with low fatalities. In contrast to the alarming escalation of violence in Balochistan and Sindh, KP, Punjab, and Gilgit Baltistan (GB) recorded significant decreases in violence during the same period. KP witnessed a notable 24% decline, signalling progress in the region's security situation. Likewise, Punjab and GB saw substantial declines of 85% and 65%, respectively, offering hope for improved stability and peace in these areas. However, these positive trends must be sustained through continued vigilance and strategic interventions.

The KP Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) arrested multiple terrorists and facilitators for their involvement in the March 26 suicide attack on Chinese nationals in Besham area of Shangla District, Geo News reported on April 1. The sources within CTD said that more than 10 terrorists and accomplices have been apprehended and that the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP)-affiliated outfits are believed to be involved in the attack. The CTD said that the terrorist commander, responsible for bringing the suicide bomber to Pakistan from Afghanistan, has also been arrested as well as four other facilitators. Furthermore, the investigation has revealed that the explosive-laden vehicle used in the deadly attack was prepared in Afghanistan and was subsequently transported to Dera Ismail Khan's Darazinda via the Pak-Afghan Chaman border crossing in Balochistan. From there, the vehicle was transported to Chakdara in Lower Dir — via a smuggler of non-custom paid vehicles — for which the driver was paid PKR 250,000. However, Security Forces also arrested the facilitator responsible for transporting the vehicle from Chaman to Chakdara. Investigation team said that the car was then brought to the incident site on the day of the attack after being parked for 10 days at the cost of PKR 500 per day. The mastermind of the attack, Hazrat Bilal, was wanted by the SFs for his involvement in the Dasu dam attack.

Four Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres were killed in an encounter with security personnel in a forest near Lendra village under the Gangaloor Police Station area in the Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh on April 2 (today), reports Business Standard. Inspector General of Police (IGP), Bastar Range, Sundarraj P, said personnel belonging to the District Reserve Guard (DRG), Special Task Force (STF), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), and its elite Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA) were involved in the operation. After the exchange of fire stopped, the bodies of four Maoists, along with a Light Machine Gun (LMG) and other weapons, were recovered from the spot. Nine more bodies of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres were recovered on April 3 morning in Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh, bringing the total number of Maoists killed in the gun battle in the forest between Lendra and Korcholi villages under the Gangaloor Police Station limits on April 2 to 13, reports The Times of India. "The identity of the dead Maoists was yet to be ascertained, but prima facie, it appears that they belonged to the PLGA (People's Liberation Guerrilla Army) company no. 2 of Maoists," a senior Police official said. Police previously reported the seizure of weapons including a Light Machine Gun (LMG), a .303 rifle, and a 12-bore gun, along with a substantial quantity of barrel grenade launchers, shells, and other arms and ammunition from the site. It is to be noted here that Bijapur District falls within the Bastar Lok Sabha (Lower House of Parliament) constituency, scheduled to vote in the initial phase of the general elections on April 19.

The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) on April 8 noted with concern that the state of law and order in Karachi, the provincial capital of Sindh, had “deteriorated alarmingly”, reports Dawn. Karachi has been facing an increase in street crime in recent months. Data presented before a high-level security meeting last week showed more than 250 Karachiites were shot dead and 1,052 others were wounded by street criminals between 2022 and March 28, 2024. In a post on social media platform X, the HRCP said: “Tens of thousands of street crimes were registered by the police in 2023, in which over a hundred people lost their lives. The first quarter of 2024 has followed the same pattern.” The HRCP pointed out that that retaliatory vigilantism and increased brutality by citizens in response to the crime wave was “not the answer”, adding that the government’s failure to address rising crime levels was “shocking”. “The underlying factors such as economic desperation and unemployment need to be addressed urgently as well,” HRCP stressed.

Friba Rezayee, the first woman to represent Afghanistan at the Olympics, has called on the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to ban Afghanistan due to the Taliban’s human rights record, Arab News reports on April 16. She has argued that under a such ban, Afghan women should still be allowed to participate as part of the IOC Refugee Olympic Team. “Given tons and tons of evidence about the Taliban, about their brutal treatment of women and children, they are very dangerous,” Rezayee, who now lives in Vancouver, Canada, stated. “If the IOC allows them to enter the Olympics at the heart of Europe, in Paris in 2024, it’s very dangerous for the people”, she added.

Chhattisgarh government is working on a new surrender policy in which Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres who give up arms may have their FIRs quashed, but the terms will not be lenient for hard-core ‘commanders’, deputy Chief Minister (CM) and state Home Minister Vijay Sharma said in an interview on April 18, reports The Times of India. "Our govt is holding discussions to bring major changes in the surrender policy for Maoists. We want to encourage more insurgents to give up violence, join the mainstream and avail benefits of the state's progress," he said, adding that it is mulling wiping out FIRs of those who surrender. Asked if FIRs against Madvi Hidma or other such dreaded Maoist ‘commanders’ will also be quashed if they give up arms, he said: "It's Maoist central committee members who have fanned the fire of violence and launched this unending conflict in society. We are ready to talk with anyone, be it Hidma or any of the central committee members. They can surrender, but the provisions will not be the same for them. Quashing their FIRs will be difficult because of the harm they have caused. But there's no ill-feeling towards them, we welcome them to surrender."

The United States (US) State Department’s latest “2023 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices,” issued on April 22, indicates no significant improvement in Pakistan’s human rights situation over the past year, The Balochistan Post reported on April 27. The report accuses the Pakistan Government of engaging in intimidation and reprisals against individuals abroad, including civil society activists, human rights defenders, and journalists. According to the report, Pakistan is responsible for substantial human rights abuses, such as arbitrary and extrajudicial killings, torture, inhumane treatment, and life-threatening prison conditions. It further states that arbitrary arrests and political detentions continue to occur, with “a lack of accountability contributing to widespread impunity.” The report also highlighted allegations from the previous year where activists accused the Pakistani Government of conducting politically motivated killings and kidnappings in other countries. Additionally, it noted that successive Pakistani administrations have tacitly approved enforced disappearances. Citing figures from the Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearances, the report detailed that out of 9,967 missing-person cases reported since 2011, 7,714 have been resolved, leaving 2,253 still pending.

The number of proscribed outfits has swelled to 79 after the first addition in the list of terrorist organisations in four years, Dawn reported on April 24. The latest addition to the list, the Zainebiyoun Brigade (ZB), is a militant group which was designated by the US State Department as a terrorist organisation in 2019. The decision to ban Zainebiyoun Brigade was notified after escalation of tensions with Iran in January and implemented on March 29. Seen by observers as a move by Islamabad to appease Washington, while others speculate this was done to win favour with Riyadh, whose foreign minister visited Pakistan recently. Formed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) after a civil war broke out in Syria in 2011, the Zainebiyoun Brigade, also known as Liwa Zainebiyoun, is charged with mobilising Pakistani Shias to fight forces opposed to Syrian ruler Bashar Al Assad, a close ally of Tehran and Moscow. The Brigade has acknowledged ties with the Quds Force since around the 2001 US invasion of Afghanistan, and its formation was announced in 2014 during the conflict in Syria. It recently pledged its readiness to follow orders from the IRGC.

The bus drivers and transporters in Panjgur District took to the streets in protest against what they describe as extortion practices by Security Forces (SFs), The Balochistan Post reported on April 27. The demonstrators have halted bus services, vowing not to resume operations until their demands are addressed. According to the protestors, SFs personnel manning checkpoints along various routes demand illicit payments from bus and truck operators to allow passage. These checkpoints, situated between Karachi and Panjgur, have significantly impacted the lives of drivers and transporters. The coast guards conduct thorough inspections of buses, even scrutinizing and confiscating items like cakes and biscuits, under the pretext of “security concerns.” Buses and trucks are often detained without valid justification, and their release is contingent upon payment of exorbitant bribes to the security personnel, they said.

While the terrorists left the judge’s driver unharmed, they set fire to the judge’s official vehicle before fleeing with Marwat. While Marwat is posted to the South Waziristan District, the sessions court functions from Tank due to security concerns. The first visual of the Judge Marwat emerged in a video clip lasting over one minute, in which he reveals that he was kidnapped by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), adds The Khorasan Diary. In the minute-long message, the judge Marwat said his release was only possible if the militants’ demands were accepted. “I request the federal and provincial governments, chief justices of Peshawar High Court and Supreme Court of Pakistan to make sure the Taliban’s demands are accepted and my recovery is made sure as soon as possible,” he said. However, the Dera Ismail Khan Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) said the abductee reached home safely after being recovered ‘unconditionally’.
