Only one? Damn.
SUKKUR: Bloodshed between the Maher, Almani, Korai and other tribes has intensified, with more violent incidents taking place overnight and Friday morning. A Maher man was killed, two other men were kidnapped and two houses set on fire last night.
"Yarrr! Where're da babes?"
Ghotki police succeeded in recovering all the seven kidnapped women belonging to the Maher and Korai tribes and returned them to their relatives. Meanwhile, a group of armed Maher tribesmen attacked village Gulzar Korai near Mirpur Mathelo Thursday night, and burned ten houses of the Korai tribesmen. No loss of life was reported. According to the DPO of Ghotki, Aftab Halepoto, more than 100 people from different tribes have been arrested and lodged at police stations. Heavy police contingents were summoned from Sukkur, Naushahro Feroze and Khairpur on Friday. The Rangers had already been deployed in the disturbed areas. Ghotki police raided the area of Suhanjro near Mirpur Mathelo and recovered Maher woman Allah Bachaee and her teenage daughter Shahnaz Friday morning. Later, five women of Korai tribe, who were kept at the Kot of Sardar Ali Gauhar Maher, were returned to their relatives. But an elder of the Korai tribe said only one woman had been returned.

#1  It's not just the Pashtun and Baluch tribesmen who spend all day killing each other, the Sindhis don't want to be left out either.
