Warrant issued for Bugti’s grandson
An Anti Terrorism Court (ATC) issued a non-bailable warrant (NBW) for the arrest of Sardar Brahamdagh Khan, the grandson of Sardar Akbar Khan Bugti, in the PIDC bombing case on Friday.
"It's a bughunt."
The court, headed by Judge Haq Nawaz Baloch, made its first sitting inside Central Prison Karachi after the notification for a jail trial for this case was issued last month. Brahamdagh Khan and Abdul Hameed were already declared absconders by the court.

On Friday, the prosecution also provided copies of the witnesses’ statements to accused Aziz Khan and Mangla Khan who were arrested within 24 hours of the November 15 bomb blast at the main entrance of the Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation (PIDC) building complex. Prosecutor Mazhar Qayuoom handed the accused the copies as they have yet to engage a lawyer. The court, ordering the investigation officer to arrest and produce the absconders before it, adjourned further proceedings till February 18.

According to the police indictment, both accused had confessed before the judicial magistrate south to carrying out the bombing. Citing these confessional statements, the police had claimed in the indictment that both the accused had confessed that absconding accused Sardar Brahamdagh, a tribal leader of the Bugti tribe, gave them and another absconding accused Abdul Hameed the task of carrying out the bombing at the office of Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) that is housed in the PIDC building complex as PPL was not providing local Baloch people jobs. Four people were killed and scores of others were injured in a car bomb blast on November 15 outside the PIDC building complex. Accused Aziz, Mangla and Abdul Jabbar were arrested within 24 hours of the incident. However, the police later dropped charges against Abdul Jabbar for want of evidence.
