Some details of Punjabi killings in Balochistan is mentioned here. Now finally, A.F.B. take some notice of these killings.
Washington DC: (By Ahmar Mustikhan) That very day March 7, Lt. Col (Ret.) Ralph Peters was calling the Baloch to clean their house of human rights violators, reports from Mand Bullo said that five unarmed Punjabi civilians were gunned down by suspected Baloch militants.
"I am very concerned with Baloch extremists. Killing teachers and doctors is just dumb. It might feel good as revenge but it is not going to win you friends in Washington. Assassinating these folks is just hurting their movement," Peters, a staunch advocate of Balochistan independence, said in his interview to Eddie Walsh in the Huffington Post.
“The Baloch movement has either been hijacked by this group of hardliners or it has simply become an umbrella for all criminal sections of the society to pursue their personal goals under the pretext of nationalism,” the Baloch Hal said.
Sources from Mand Bullo in coastal Mekran confirm the fears expressed in the Baloch Hal editorial. They say that both the February 15 killing of the seven Pashtun day laborers and the March 7 killing of the five Punjabi youthful travelers were the handiwork of Shaukat Buledi, a former employee of international terrorist and mafia don Dawood ibrahim.
Shaukat Buledi is now belived to be the righthand man of B.L.F. chief Dr. Allah Nazar Baloch. The premier American Friends of Balochistan rejects any compromise with militants who target unarmed civilians and political workers, though it fully defends Baloch actions to defend their lives against Pakistan military and Frontier Corps.
The A.F.B. says it does not differentiate between Baloch killed by Pakistan military and intelligence services and unarmed civilians and political activists killed by the Baloch militants as the color of human blood is the same.
In this connection some in the A.F.B. have sought help of Mehran Baluch, who is Balochistan’s unofficial representative at the UN Human Rights Council, and his brother-in-law Brahumdagh Bugti, 31, president of the Baloch Republican Party.
The two leaders can not only help rein in the militants in Balochistan, but can also discipline individuals in Canada who publicly insult veteran leaders like Sardar Ataullah Mengal by calling his stance as “unrealistic.”
At least one American met Mehran Baluch in Dubai in recent months to relay to him the A.F.B. concerns after which Mehran Baluch publicly stated militants do not have the right to become judge, jury and executioner. .
Rashid Baloch, a senior A.F.B. official, shares these views. Baloch is disgusted criminals in B.L.F. have brutalized his once peaceful town of Kech as they do not spare even extremely poor workers from other ethnic groups on the lines of Tamil Tigers.
