Weapons and explosives recovered near Pak-Afghan border
Dawn.com
QUETTA: Security forces raided a truck and recovered a large quantity of weapons, ammunition and explosives in Balochistan's Gulistan area near the Pak-Afghan border region on Monday, DawnNews reported.
Balochistan Home Minister Mir Sarfaraz Bugti alleged that neighbouring countries,including India and Afghanistan, were trying to carry out terror activities to weaken Pakistan.
He further claimed that Afhgan intelligence agencies had set up at least 34 insurgent camps in this regard.
Security forces claimed to have recovered 70 sacks of explosive materials, 45 prepared bombs, 200 detonators, 100 AK-47 rifles, nine Kalakov rifles, three G-3 rifles and 135 handguns from hidden compartments in the truck.
Bomb making and other equipment recovered included one hundred bundles of prima cord, 50 remote control detonators, sophisticated binoculars, sniper scopes and at least 2,000 rounds of ammunition.
Security sources said the weapons were being smuggled into Balochistan from Afghanistan to be used in terror activities across the country, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
