Soldier martyred, 16 injured as 'violent mob' assaults security forces in Gwadar
[GEO.TV] At least one soldier was martyred and sixteen others including an officer were maimed after a violent mostly peaceful mob under the guise of "Baloch Raji Muchi" attacked security forces' personnel in Gwadar district of Balochistan, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Monday.

A violent mostly peaceful mob in the garb of so-called Baloch Raji Muchi or Baloch National Gathering summoned by the Balochistan Yakjehti Committee (BYC) assaulted security forces' personnel today who have been performing duties in Balochistan's Gwadar district.

Resultantly, Sepoy Shabbir Baloch, age 30 years; resident of district Sibi, embraced shahadat, it added.

In addition, the unprovoked assaults by the violent mostly peaceful protesters have resulted in injuries to sixteen soldiers including an officer, the ISPR said.

Moreover, the ISPR said fake and malicious propaganda is being spread on social media using doctored pictures and videos by the propagandists to gain sympathy and support for the unlawful violent mostly peaceful march.

"Security forces have displayed extreme restraint to avoid unwarranted civilian casualties despite provocations," it said adding that the violent mostly peaceful actions of the mob are unacceptable and those responsible will be brought to justice.
