Frontier Corps Balochistan Inspector General Major General Obaidullah Khan Khattak has said that the son of Khan of Kalat, Mohammad Ahmadzai, had assured him that he would bring his father Mir Sulema Daud back for bringing him to mainstream politics.
Addressing a press briefing at FC Headquarter on Saturday, the IG said Khan’s son, Mohammad Ahmadzai, during a meeting with him three months ago expressed concern over the situation of Balochistan and stressed on the need for improving it.
He said Mohammad also expressed desire that he wanted to bring his father (Khan Kalat) back to the country for bringing him into national mainstream politics.
The IG categorically refuted allegations Shahzain Bugti made in his recent interview on a news channel claiming that FC arrested him in a fabricated case of smuggling of heavy weapons and ammunition and later the Supreme Court released him after taking suo motu notice of it.
He said it was baseless, as all weapons were recovered in the presence of Shahzain from the vehicles in his fleet.
Khattak said Pakistan Day celebrations remained successful as public showed its enthusiasm in Balochistan Mela throughout Balochistan and a large number of people took part in festivities held in connection with the day.
He said that besides social activities, FC was playing its due role for the improvement of law and order, and FC along with police carried out search operation on March 20th in Quetta and arrested 104 accused persons involved in incidents of targeted killing, kidnapping for ransom, car snatching and other incidents.
Referring to law and order of the province, Khattak said 107 people, including FC and police personnel, were killed in 313 terrorism-related incidents and most of the casualties happened in Quetta, Dera Bugti and Sibi.
Khattak said during the past three months, 66 people had been kidnapped from various parts of Balochistan for ransom.
He divulged that work on new gas reserves in Sui had been undertaken under the security of FC while survey for gas in Kharan and Barkhan would be made and hopefully these projects would yield gas.
