Two suspected tribal militants held in Balochistan
 Police arrested two suspected members of an outlawed tribal militant group on Wednesday in connection with attacks against the government, an official said. The arrests were made during a raid in Naushki, a town about 200 kilometres southwest of Quetta, a Naushki police official told the Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The suspects were identified as Babu Allah Bakhsh and Sher Mohammed. The men were suspected to be members of the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), a shadowy ethnic-Baloch tribal group that Pakistan banned in April this year, according to the official. The British government also banned the BLA on Monday. Posted by: Fred 2006-07-20 |
