Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... says that he cannot rule out the presence of Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (IS) snuffies in the province. In an exclusive interview with DawnNews on Wednesday, Chief Minister Dr Malik Baloch said that religious extremism and fanaticism had risen in the province during last three decades. Dr Malik said religious fanatics had penetrated the Baloch society in the aftermath of the USSR's invasion of neighbouring Afghanistan. "I cannot rule out presence of IS or any Lion of Islam group in Balochistan," he said when asked about the reports of presence of the hard boy Lion of Islam group in Balochistan, Pakistain's largest and resource-rich province. |
