on Friday, police said.

Commissioner Quetta, Usman Gul said gunnies shot up a hotel and killed Rasool Bakhsh Khetran and a companion of his on Masjid road area of Quetta.

The assailants sped away on a cycle of violence after the attack. Police later took the dead bodies to nearby civil hospital for postmortem.

Family members and Khetran rustics brought the dead bodies near Governor House to mourn the killings. The protest resulted in suspension of traffic towards Governor House.

Fazl is active in Pak politix and Sami spends more time running his madrassah. Both branches sponsor branches of the Taliban, though with plausible deniability...
(F), Sardar Abdul Rehman Khetran said that the provincial government had completely failed to protect the lives and properties of the masses.

He demanded the arrest of the accused involved in the murder of the PML-N leader. The protesters later dispersed after the assurance of commissioner Quetta division Usman Gul and other high ups.

In another incident, two vehicles were destroyed in a rocket attack in Brewery road area of Quetta. Police said the rocket was fired by unknown gunnies and landed at TB Sanatorium. Fortunately, there was no loss of life as a result of the rocket attack.

Levies also found two mutilated dead bodies in Panjgoor town. A levies official who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter told Dawn.com that two dead bodies were found in Chakal area of Panjgoor. He said that the dead bodies were yet to be identified.

"It seems to be assassination," he said. Mutilated dead bodies are being found in different parts of Balochistan for more than three years. There has been no claim of responsibility for the bullet-riddled bodies.
