making legal protest for their basic rights. As a result several innocent
people including the aged and children received injuries. The incident led
to widespread resentment among the masses against the brutality of
Frontier Corps.
These
are the very cruelties and excess being committed by the Punjabi
occupied forces that gave rise to Baloch armed struggle. It will also be
important to know that Baloch people launched, in the first instance,
Government could not check out such attacks which Baloch people are
holding from fifty six years to achieve their rights which are usurped by
the Punjabi State Pakistan. In spite the struggle of fifty-six years
Government does not want to accept the rights of Baloch people. Because of
depravedness all Baloch’s are fighting against their combined enemy
(Punjabi Pakistan). 6.6.04
