Dr Ghulam Rasool, the surgeon who was kidnapped over two weeks ago, safely reached home on Friday evening. Rasool, who worked at the Balochistan Medical Complex (BMC), was kidnapped 17 days ago from Brewery Road. Rasool’s family members confirmed his return, but avoided giving details. Doctors in Quetta have been on strike since Rasool’s abduction. They had been boycotting work at the Outpatient Departments, and on Thursday threatened to include emergency wards in the strike if the government failed to recover their abducted colleague in the next 48 hours.
