No more talks with Bugti: Rashid
2006-04-11
Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said on Monday that the government would hold no more talks with Nawab Akbar Bugti to resolve the Balochistan issue. The government will be in control of the troubled areas of the province within a couple of months, the minister told reporters in Parliament House. He said members of the banned Balochistan Liberation Army had been arrested and they had confessed their crimes.

"They have admitted that they were involved in targeting important national installations and bomb blasts for which they were being paid," Ahmed said, adding that they also admitted they were working for Nawab Akbar Bugti. He said that the government banned the BLA only after it gathered sufficient evidence that the group was involved in terrorist activities.
