QUETTA: Late tribal chief Nawab Akbar Bugti's sons Talal Bugti and Jamil Bugti believe that "the government is planning to kill them to eliminate anti-government Bugtis forever", Wadera Alam Khan, a spokesman for the Bugti tribe, said via satellite phone from an undisclosed location on Saturday. Alam said that this task was likely to be accomplished by intelligence agencies with the help of Kalpar and Masuri Bugti tribesmen, who had been against Nawab Akbar Bugti for the last several years. "The government has entrusted the responsibility of killing the late nawab's sons and nephews to Kalpar tribesmen." Alam claimed that military helicopters were still bombing Dera Bugti. He said that the body buried in Dera Bugti was not that of Akbar Bugti's and rejected the government offer to allow a DNA test of Bugti's body without an international medical board.
