SANGHAR: A sizeable quantity of explosive material, along with detonator, batteries and remote control devices, was unearthed when security agencies’ personnel dug up a specified place within the Noor Moosani graveyard in Tando Adam on Tuesday.

Tando Adam SHO Aslam Bullo told the media that the action was carried out on a tip-off.

He said the recovered explosives weigh­ed around seven kilograms. He said the material appeared to be Russian-made and believed it was hidden by the banned Baloch Liberation Army as it had mostly been using such material in the past.
