“Terrorists have been attacking innocent Hazara community members for the last two decades despite tall claims by the government that law and order is being restored,” said Balochistan Shia Conference Senior Vice President Syed Musarrat Agha while addressing a press conference.
Agha said, “Terrorists targeted and killed Balochistan Shia Conference Security In-charge Muhammad Ali and Muhammad Zaman and injured police constable Safar Ali before fleeing the scene.”
He said that the federal government launched operations Zarb-e-Azb and Radd-ul-Fasaad to cleanse the country of terrorists, but the killings of Hazara community members never stopped.
Help Hazaras, top court urges Balochistan govt

Appealing for preventive security measures for the Hazara community, the Balochistan Shia Conference said, “The Hazara nation is being harassed in two neighbourhoods of Quetta, while the doors to education and job opportunities have been shut for us.”
They demanded to arrest of the terrorists and trial in the military court.
