JACOBABAD, Feb 8: Three Rangers personnel were injured when the truck they were travelling in ran over a landmine on the Sindh-Punjab border on Sunday. The Rangers were deployed there to guard the Sui gas pipeline. They were seriously injured and shifted to a Rahim Yar Khan hospital. The vehicle was completely destroyed.

Police and Rangers cordoned off the area and started house-to-house search but no one was arrested. Meanwhile, about 20 outlaws launched an attack on the Rangers and Frontier constabulary camp with rockets near Kot Mir Jan Chakrani on the Sindh-Balochistan border on Saturday.

The outlaws fired eight rockets at the camp out of which three hit the camp wall and damaged it. Rangers and FC personnel retaliated and the encounter continued for about two hours after which the outlaws managed to flee.
