QUETTA: Six bodies were recovered by Levies personnel in Balochistan’s Panjgoor district on Friday evening.

The bodies, bearing bullet wounds, were found in the Parom area of the district, said security officials.

“All six bodies were recovered from a house in the area,” said a Levies official while talking to DawnNews.

Levies personnel moved the bodies to the district headquarter hospital for postmortem. Levies personnel have started an investigation into the incident.

Motive behind the incident could not be ascertained, added the Levies official.

Militants have conducted attacks against security forces and national installations in Balochistan, which has been plagued by an insurgency and growing sectarian killings for more than a decade.
