RAW’s Involvement Suspected
Security sources suspect the involvement of India’s Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) in the Mach attack. Indian social media accounts reportedly had prior knowledge of the attack. The Balochistan Liberation Army, a banned group, claimed responsibility for the attack.
Additionally, Indian agents are accused of murders in Pakistan and Canada, spreading unrest through RAW-linked accounts. International intervention against India’s actions is urged.
Security forces successfully thwarted the attacks without any casualties or damage. When confronted by the forces, the terrorists retreated. The minister commended the army and Frontier Corps for their courage and determination.
Balochistan’s Caretaker Chief Minister, Ali Mardan Domki, condemned the attacks. He directed the home department to restore peace and praised the prompt response of security agencies.
Following the events in Mach and Kolpur, 13 injured individuals were transported to Quetta’s trauma centre. The managing director assured that they were receiving the best medical care.
