Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Fazl (JUI-F) has held the chief justice of Pakistan, chief election commissioner and law enforcement agencies answerable for the back-to-back blasts in Balochistan earlier in the day.

At least 28 people were killed in the blasts, which occurred outside election offices of the JUI-F and an independent candidate in Qila Saifullah and Pishin, respectively.

In a statement on X, JUI-F spokesperson Aslam Ghauri said state institutions had failed to maintain the law and order situation in the country. “Political scoundrels who made fun of our reservations are responsible for the blood of these martyrs,” he stated.

The spokesperson urged party workers to step forward and help the administration with medical aid.
