QUETTA, April 9: The chief of his own faction of Jamhoori Watan Party, Nawabzada Talal Akbar Bugti, has advised the Balochistan government against inducting those PML-Q elements in the new set-up who were involved in the conspiracy to kill Nawab Akbar Bugti and thousands of other people in Balochistan.

Addressing a news conference, he called for registration of cases against people who were involved in any way in the killing of innocent people in the province.

Mr Bugti showed to media persons video clips of some victims of the military operation in Dera Bugti. He accused former provincial home minister and former MPAs belonging to the JWP from Nasirabad and Jaffarabad of being involved in the conspiracy to kill his father.

He said peace could not be restored in the province only by passing resolutions in the assembly. The government must take action against all the people involved in the killing.
