QUETTA: Balochistan Home Minister Safraz Bugti  disclosed that Baloch Liberation Front (BLF) Chief Dr Allah Nazar Baloch reportedly killed in an operation by security forces.

Balochistan Home Minister Safraz Bugti addressing a press conference at Civil Secretariat Quetta, said, “According to unverified reports Dr Allah Nazar has been killed … I say unverified because we have not yet received any evidence of his being alive ever since the Frontier Corps conducted a series of operations. There has been no human intelligence, no sign of life.”

The separatist leader’s killing has been rumoured since July 18 this year when security forces conducted an operation in Awaran district of the province.

However, the reports were denied by a BLF spokesman at the time.

Bugti also announced security forces also arrested seven suspected terrorists from Balochistan’s Dalbandin region.
