QUETTA: Huge cache of arms and ammunition was recovered on Wednesday when security forces raided residence of Jamhoori Wattan Party (JWP) leader, Shahzain Bugti, in Quetta, Samaa reported.
Shahzain is son of Nawabzada Talal Akbar Bugti and grandson of slain Akbar Khan Bugti. He is chief of Balochistan chapter of JWP’s Talal faction.
Officials said the security forces conducted raid on the house of Bugti located on New Al-Gilani road in Quetta and recovered illegal weapons and ammunition, including rockets, detonators, remote-controlled bomb devices and explosive material.
Sources said the arms and ammunition were concealed inside a water tank of the house.
In December 2010, Shahzain and his 26 security guards were arrested by Frontier Corps near Quetta. The troops recovered a huge quantity of illegal arms and ammunition, including anti-aircraft guns, from one of the vehicles of his convoy.
Shahzain and his guards were released on bail nearly one month later. - Samaa
