NOSHKI: Traffic on the Quetta-Taftan RCD highway resumed after successful negotiations between protesters and Frontier Corps officials as the authorities concerned ordered the arrest of those involved in the killing of one Saeed Ahmed Badini and firing on the Levies Force in Gaznali, an area near Afghan border.

A group of men protesting against the incident earlier placed the coffin on the RCD highway and chanted slogans demanding justice for Badini, who they alleged was killed by the firing of Levies Force.

Two groups had been fighting over a land dispute in the Gaznali area for almost a month, Noshki Deputy Commissioner Khurram Khalid told Dawn.

Mir Zia Ullah Langove took notice of the Noshki incident and asked the deputy commissioner to submit a detailed report.
