Balochistan unrest: Bodies of three ‘missing persons’ found in Quetta
Superintendent of Police (SP) Saryab Sikandar Tareen said a police patrol found three bodies stuffed in gunny bags dumped at an abandoned place.
The bodies were shifted to the Bolan Medical Complex Teaching Hospital for medical examination.
Medics said that the bodies bore rope marks around their necks, which indicated that they were strangled to death.
According to the Voice for Baloch Missing Persons (VFBMP), an organisation striving for the safe recovery of missing persons, the victims, all aged between 25 and 30, had gone missing last month near Zarghoon Road in Quetta.
“They were missing persons and their video footage was shown by police during the Supreme Court hearing in Islamabad,” VFBMP chairman Nasrullah Baloch said.
Police officials killed
Meanwhile, two policemen, including an assistant sub inspector (ASI), were killed and two others injured in an ambush on Saryab Road.
A police van was returning from a court when armed men lurking near Aid village opened indiscriminate fire on it, killing two policemen on the spot and leaving two others critically injured.
The deceased were identified as ASI Abdul Qayyum and Constable Mohammad Asif.

The deaths of all these young Baloch is on PCO CJ. I have begged him on these pages to please not demand their production by the establishment. Whenever he demands they deliver the dead bodies or tortured people on life support. The CJ should stop the bublic speeches and write the just and strong verdict against the killers. But according to the CJ a slap is worse than a brutal murder! Please for God sake stop this barbaric murder of young Baloch youth.
