QUETTA, May 9: The Alliance for Restoration of Democracy (ARD), Balochistan, has strongly condemned the killing of French and Pakistani citizens in a bomb blast in Karachi and termed it a proof of the government’s weakness.
A meeting of the provincial committee of the alliance held here on Wednesday, with former Senator Tahir Bizenjo in the chair, also expressed deep concern and sorrow over the killing of religious scholar Dr Ghulam Murtaza Malik in Lahore and many doctors in Karachi at the hands of terrorists.
The meeting observed that all the law enforcement agencies and secret services failed to trace the culprits involved in these acts of terrorism.
Describing their occurrence as an administrative failure, the meeting observed that such a situation was very alarming for the country which could worsen if appropriate steps were not taken.
The ARD’s provincial committee criticized the military government, claiming the people had rejected the policies of Gen Musharraf through boycott of the referendum on the call of opposition political forces.
