ISLAMABAD: A nexus of Taliban, Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and Jandola exists in the province, said the Federal Interior Minister, Rehman Malik during the Supreme Court hearing of the Balochistan law and order case on Friday here.
A three-member bench headed by the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Cahudhry heard the case.
During proceedings the Chief Justice told the interior minister to go and catch hold of the Taliban, BLA and Jundullah and why they were not being arrested.
Rehman Malik said he would be giving a briefing about it.
CJ in his remarks said that whatever was happening in Balochistan was the responsibility of the provincial government. Those of us in Islamabad could not feel the heat of it. Is it possible for the people in Balochistan to move about freely, is anyone safe and secure in any place, he inquired and added that the chief minister’s own nephew was murdered and the murderer could not be arrested.
On this, interior minister said that this perception was not correct, "you come along with me, I will be driving the car," he said.
CJ said that you are good at driving, but Balochistan is not limited to Quetta, the Hindus have left from Kalat, all the shops are closed and the caravans move in security during the night in Kalat. Governor and chief secretary were subjected to firing. You sitting in Islamabad saying all is well.
Then, Rehman Malik said that your observations are correct, but is it the government machinating all this. He said that Taliban, BLA and Jundullah nexus exists in the province.
