The body of Karima Baloch, a Pakistani human rights activist, has been found in Toronto, Canada, where she had been living for five years in exile.

Ms Baloch, 37, a campaigner from the restive region of Balochistan in western Pakistan, was a vocal critic of the Pakistani military and state.

Toronto police issued an appeal after she went missing on Sunday and later confirmed that her body had been found.

Police said there were "not believed to be any suspicious circumstances".

In 2016, Ms Baloch was named in the BBC's annual list of 100 inspirational and influential women for her work as a campaigner. She left Pakistan in 2015, after terrorism charges were levelled against her.

She continued to campaign in exile for the rights of people in Balochistan, both on social media and in person.

And the threats followed her, according to Lateef Johar Baloch, a close friend and fellow activist who also lives in Toronto.
