By Our Correspondent
QUETTA, April 4: The Balochistan National Party (Awami), a coalition partner of the ruling PML in Balochistan, receives funds from terrorist organisations such as Jundullah, Al Qaeda and Taliban for carrying out subversive activities, according to Mir Ghulam Mohammad Rind, chairman of Awami Tehrik.
The organisation is a wing of the ruling PML in the Makran area
Addressing a press conference at the press club here on Tuesday, he claimed that BNP-A’s provincial ministers and district nazims were behind terrorist acts in the south-western Balochistan.
Mir Rind warned that if saboteurs’ activity was not curbed, the south-western Balochistan would turn into another Waziristan and maintained that relatives of ministers and district nazims were equipped with sophisticated weapons for targeting sensitive installations.
He claimed that terrorists were utilising their official positions for evading the law and demanded that the government should immediately take action against the saboteurs.
Mir Rind, a staunch supporter of President Gen Musharraf, also asserted that the BNP-A activists were also involved in the kidnapping for ransom cases, saying that several of the abducted people were kept in ministers’ houses.
He urged the people to identify and expose the saboteurs in their respective areas.
