QUETTA:
Sixteen members of an entourage of the Emir of Qatar were arrested on Wednesday for breaking a barrier of a Levies checkpoint in Noshki district.
Official sources said an advance party of the Emir of Qatar was enroute to Mashkeel to make arrangements for hunting the houbara bustard when it ignored Levies personnel’s signal to stop at their post for checking. The entourage reportedly tried to escape by breaking the Levies barrier.
