At least four people, including Balochistan Awami Party Senator Sarfaraz Bugti's cousin, were killed in a landmine explosion near Dera Bugti's Sui in Balochistan, while at least ten people were injured.

The deceased were members of the Aman Force, while the injured also included Levies force personal. Dead bodies and the injured have been shifted to Public Welfare Hospital.

Although no organisation has accepted responsibility for the attack, Bugti speculates that the banned organisation Balochistan Republican Army were behind the attack.

Law enforcers including Levies force personnel have reached the scene.

Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Abdul Qudoos Bazinjo condemned the incident and expressed grief over the death of volunteers of the Aman Force.

While condoling with the families of the victims, he said, “the martyrs laid their lives for protection of lives and properties of people and to establish peace in the province. The enemies of peace once again carried out a cowardice activity of terrorism. The efforts and sacrifices rendered for peace would not go waste.”
