 Security forces searched several suspected homes around the Sui gas field in Balochistan and seized small weapons and ammunition, a minister said on Saturday. "Security forces have seized a rocket propelled grenade launcher, small arms and ammunition from abandoned homes during search operations in Sui on Friday and Saturday," Balochistan Home Minister Shoaib Nausherwani told AFP. Some residents voluntarily handed over their shotguns, rifles and pistols to authorities as a gesture of cooperation to security forces, he said. "The situation in Sui is now peaceful and security forces are protecting the gas installations," he said. |
