Gas pipeline blown up in Sui |
2008-04-27 |
![]() The channel said the gas supply had been suspended to several southern Punjab districts and powerhouses. The Baloch Republican Army (BRA), a banned militant outfit, has claimed responsibility for the incident. Militants in Balochistan often blow up the gas pipeline and electricity poles to press the government for their demands – from seeking royalties for the region’s gas supply to getting share in government jobs. The BRA also claimed responsibility for the killing of six army personnel in a remote control bomb blast in Dera Bugti in August 2007. |
