(Karachi) Twitter has suspended the official account of the Balochistan Liberation army after the terrorist group claimed responsibility of the Pakistan Stock Exchange attack which claimed the lives of seven people.

The BLA had previously uploaded pictures of the terrorist who targeted the PSX. Included in the picture were Tasleem Baloch, Shehzad Baloch, Salman Hammal and Siraj Kungur who were all slain in the exchange of fire with security forces.

The long-overdue suspension comes after several twitter users in Pakistan reported the account following the tweet claiming responsibility of the attack.

It is not the first time the BLA has claimed responsibility for a terror attack in the country on its Twitter handle. It claimed responsibility for several attacks that also included strike on Chinese consulate in Karachi in 2018.
