QUETTA: Four militants, including a key commander of a banned organisation, surrendered to security forces in Balochistan's Sui area on Friday.
The commander identified as Tota Khan Bugti laid down weapons along with three other militants before officials at a ceremony.
Know more: Another 59 Baloch militants surrender
Frontier Corps spokesman Khan Wasey said Tota Khan Bugti was fighting against security forces for a long time in the area.
The militants handed over 4 SMGs, 20 SMG magazines, a satellite phone and other equipment to security forces.
Besides officials, tribal elders were also present during the ceremony held in Sui tehsil of Dera Bugti, Wasey said.
The surrender has come after the Balochistan government announced amnesty for youths surrendering their weapons and adopting peaceful lives in the province few days back.
In the past month, more than one hundred militants hailing from various militant organisations have laid down their weapons in Balochistan.
The government also announced a compensation policy for youth surrendering before security forces in the province.

I think the best solution would be to remove youth unemployment mainly through their recruitment to the Armed Forces of Pakistan.

The satellite phone part is interesting. Most likely can be traced back to their Indian handlers in Afghanistan.

Mashallah, Qaid-e-Azam warned against pushing the Baluch too hard. The Khanate of Kalat were reluctant to join the Pakistani union. External forces have always seen the Baluch as a potential tool against Pakistan. The military is doing a great job routing out internal and external threats, and the Baluchistan govt is going a fantastic job making peace for its people.

Its time for all Pakistani's (including Balochi's) to come together in the spirit of multiculturalism, development and prosperity. We need to move forward and bring more prosperity to our land. Im happy to hear that these individuals have shunned their terrorists past and am happy our government is helping to rehabilitate them. I hope those that surrendered help provide intelligence about their indian suppliers which go along way in further destroying that country's malicious atrocities.

if this is really a true news the nation would open heartedly welcome it but for the leaders and policy makers its time to change their colonial behaviour against baloch, because the world is intered in fouth generation warfare (space and media warfare) which cannot be counter with sofisticated weapons and standing armies.
