The Frontier Corps (FC) on Sunday arrested at least 47 Afghan refugees near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border area of Bramcha and seized weapons from them. Sources said that FC personnel raided Bramcha village -- about 70 kilometres from Noushki along the Pak-Afghan border -- on a tip-off and arrested the refugees for not possessing legal documents to prove their identity. The sources said that the FC personnel had also seized Kalashnikov rifles from the refugees. |
