Lahore, 12 April 2019. The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) has strongly condemned today’s attack in Quetta, which has killed at least 20 people and injured about 48 others. The attack targeted the city’s Shia Hazara community, who live in ‘protected enclaves’ and – given the frequency of such attacks last year – are now accompanied by a police escort when venturing out to buy food and supplies. HRCP’s sources in Quetta say that, in addition to other civilians, at least eight Shia Hazara and one Frontier Constabulary personnel were killed in the attack.
