Attackers visited Chinese consulate disguised as civilians, says injured guard

While the record of three separatists at the National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra) couldn't be found, they have been identified as Azal Khan Baloch, Razzaq Baloch and Raees Baloch. The separatists are believed to be linked with the defunct Baloch Liberation Army (BLA).
