Long march to continue: Shahzain Bugti

“We will continue our long march, as Balochistan is being taken towards destruction,” Bugti said.

KARACHI:
Shahzain Bugti, the provincial chief of Jamhoori Watan Party (JWP), reiterated his request for the security forces to withdraw from Dera Bugti and stated that they will continue with their long march as planned.

While speaking at the Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) headquarters Nine Zero in Karachi, Bugti said that the forces should leave as the land is the  property of the Bugti tribes.

“We will continue our long march, as Balochistan is being taken towards destruction, instead of betterment,” he said.


Bugti thanked MQM and other religious parties who supported their cause. He added that he hoped the security forces would not interfere in their long march.

He also said that the missing people as well as the innocent people who were jailed should all be released.

Bugti was arrested when paramilitary troops recovered a huge quantity of arms and ammunition from his possession. After his release, he announced holding a long march for the rehabilitation of the people of Dera Bugti who were displaced during a military operation.
