Quetta bomb attack kills one, injures 12: Officials

QUETTA: A civilian was killed and 12 others including three children injured when a car bomb targeted a paramilitary convoy Tuesday in the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta, officials said.
The explosives-packed car went off after vehicles of the paramilitary Frontier Corps (FC) passed, FC spokesman Murtaza Baig told AFP.
“The militants targeted two vehicles of FC but the remote-control device exploded after our convoy had passed the parked car,” he said.
Police and security forces are frequently attacked in the insurgency-plagued Balochistan province, of which Quetta is the capital.
Senior police official Wazir Khan Nasir told AFP: “The victims of the blast were all civilians who were passing from the area. The toll includes one man killed and 12 others wounded including two women and three children.”
There was no claim of responsibility for the attack but the province, which borders Iran and Afghanistan, suffers from Taliban and local rebel attacks

Lulusar Killing Incident, Facts from an eye witness!!

A friend of mine got a chance to talk with an an eye witness of this incident as he was a part of that convoy.

As per him;
• Killers were 50+
• They first looted all passengers.
• Separated targeted ones from the first 3 buses.
• Asked them to run and then shoot.

And what an amazing to me;
• Killers had latest guns and ammunition with them.
• They all had walkie talkies or satellite phones.
• They ran in latest model cars ( Land cruisers )
• They ran towards Naran but did not reach Naran. There is only one way where they could have escaped and it’s Jhalkhad - Noori top- Kashmir.

Who were they ?
How they are so well planned ?
And the most important , who is financing them?

Looks that some well planned external forces are using these insects to create Shia-Sunni Fasad in our country!!

Omar Javaid is a Professional Trekker and My Friend and i have been on tours with him and i my self talked many locals of Chillas regarding Suni Shia Conflicts according to them Unknown People are involved in these Activities Chillas is the Gate Way To the Northern Areas Rather you Come From Karakoram Highway Or Naran Babusar Top Road.

very sad and tragic incident. These animals lack tolerance and kill anyone who don't agree with their interpretation of Islam. i am sunni and let suppose shia has wrong interpretation of Islam as these fanatics suggest but does it mean you should go and kill them?

I guess same incident happened at same place few months ago

This video is 3months old it was happend between kohistan and Chillas ... and Secondly in recent Killing 22 people died from which 18 were shias and 4 were Sunis ... they killed Sunis cz Sunis didnt helped them in identification of shias and sunni tried to stop them. and it seems these are unknown elements in these areas creating tension nd to flame the suni shia conflicts

What is needed a strong and violent Intelligence Ops led by Brilliant minds. Find them and hit them hard. Lack of LEA presence around this area is making them strong. I wonder where is FIU of MI. It is always active in such kind of areas. (Areas close to IoK). It's not hard to detect a pattern they are following. Send a Bullet proof bus concealed as civilian bus carrying shias loaded with SSG and other special ops operatives and provide them air cover so that who are hiding in mountains could be targeted. Once Miscreants pinpointed, you can provide SSG backup and reinforcement through helicopters if needed. Whole Op can be monitored through Selex UAV's who can observe the terrorists who fled from the scene and can pinpoin their hideouts... This whole scenario, is it too hard to execute?

According to Hamid Ahmed, an officer posted at Saryab police station, the blast occurred when a convoy of paramilitary Frontier Corps drove past. The bomb was planted in an Alto car which was parked on the roadside.

As a result, two people were killed and 16 others sustained injuries. Two auto-rickshaws, a taxi and a motorcycle were destroyed and windowpanes of nearby houses were smashed.

Baloch insurgents have been fighting an insurgency in Balochistan since 2004. The insurgency became deadlier after the 2006 killing of Nawab Akbar Bugti in a military operation.

Militants kill three police in Hangu

PESHAWAR: Militants on Thursday shot dead three police officers in Hangu, where troops are waging an offensive to battle a homegrown insurgency.

Nobody has yet claimed responsibility for the killings, which took place in Hangu district Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, which lies along the Afghan border.

Police blamed Taliban militants for the attack, saying they fired on a patrol party and fled.

“Taliban militants are active in this area and they are responsible for the attack,” Hangu police chief Mian Mohammad Saeed told AFP by telephone, adding that three officers were killed.

Gul Jamal, another senior police official, confirmed the incident and blamed “terrorists” for the attack.

“We have cordoned off the area and have launched a search operation,” Jamal said.

Pakistan says 35,000 of its people, including more than 3,000 soldiers, have been killed as a result of terrorism since the 9/11 attacks and the US-led invasion of neighbouring Afghanistan.

Three Shias, five others gunned down in Balochistan

QUETTA: Three Shias were gunned down on Monday in Quetta, a police official said.
According to police officer Zakir Ali all three of them were killed in a sectarian drive-by shooting.
Balochistan is a flashpoint for sectarian violence involving majority Sunnis and minority Shias that has left thousands dead since the 1980s.
Earlier late Sunday, gunmen shot dead five people in attacks on two buses in Bolan as rebels staged a strike to mark the death anniversary of tribal chieftain Nawab Akbar Bugti, officials said.
According to police official Iftikhar Bugti, five people including two women were killed in the incident.
There was a “complete strike” in Quetta and several other districts on Sunday, local police chief Wazir Khan told AFP, with shops and markets closed and traffic brought to a standstill.
The halt was called by Balochistan Republican Party (BRP) leader Brahmdagh Bugti to mark the sixth anniversary of the death of his grandfather Akbar Bugti, who was killed in his mountain hideout during a military operation in 2006.
BRP spokesman Sarbaz Baloch claimed responsibility for the shooting.
“We had launched an appeal for a complete strike and the buses bound for southern Sindh and central Punjab provinces had ignored our appeal. We therefore opened fire on them,” he said in a telephone call to AFP.
Police and residents said Sunday’s strike was almost complete across the impoverished and insurgency-hit province, with 21 out of 30 districts affected.
People blocked roads and erected barricades in several places on highways leading to Iran, Karachi and other important cities, they said.
The strike was endorsed by other political and religious parties in the province, with around 300 people demonstrating in Quetta to demand the extradition and trial of former military ruler Pervez Musharraf for ordering the operation in 2006.
Baloch rebels rose up in 2004, demanding political autonomy and a greater share of profits from the oil, gas and mineral resources in the region, one of the most deprived in Pakistan.
Bomb blasts and attacks on police and security forces are frequent in the province
