ISLAMABAD: Balochistan government’s spokesman Anwarul Haq Kakar said on Monday that Brahamdagh Bugti has been a ‘conflict-ridden’ figure even for his own family.
Even the Baloch do not trust Bugti as a leader, Kakar said. Nawab Akbar Bugti’s grandson – who claims to spearhead a movement for Balochistan’s independence – is known to have fuelled terrorist activities throughout the province.
Bugti – with his affiliated group – has claimed responsibility for over a thousand acts of terrorism that killed at least 665 and injured some 1,440 innocent Baloch, sources reveal – with data backing the claim.
According to police, Bugti has 42 First Information Reports (FIR) registered against him and another 214 FIRs against his banned group, making his activities ‘crystal clear’ as his armed militia had used violence against Pakistan – at India’s request.
An eminent Baloch leader – requesting anonymity – said that Brahamdagh is an Indian stooge who neither loves nor respects the Baloch people. The international community should take notice of why India is providing Bugti with political asylum, he added.
“This decision encourages terrorism, globally,” he said.
India – after supporting East Pakistan’s Mukti Bahini and the Liberation of Tamil Elam in Sri Lanka and publically confessing to it – still claims to be a victim of terrorism.
“There is no country, in the entire world, willing to risk its credibility by hosting a known sponsor of terror acts like Brahamdagh Bugti. Yet India is ready to host him,” he said and pointed out that Switzerland recently refused to grant him asylum due to his confirmed terrorism involvements.
