30 Afghans arrested in Baluchistan raid
2004-01-17
Police said on Friday they had detained more than 30 Afghans, including several students of Islamic schools, for suspected links with Afghanistan’s former Taliban regime. Police official Mumtaz Khan told Reuters 28 Afghan pupils were arrested on Friday in a pre-dawn raid on three religious schools, or madrassahs, in Kuchlak, a town in the southwestern province of Baluchistan on the border with Afghanistan. He described them as “illegal immigrants” and said three other Afghans had been detained in the same area. “We have handed them over to the concerned security agencies to investigate whether they have links with the Taliban,” he said.

#1  Baluchistan? Now that's interesting. The Long Arm of the Law™ usually doesn't reach that far.
