2 Iranian officials abducted
2005-08-21
Two Iranian police officers were abducted by unidentified men in the Mund area near the Pakistan-Iran border. According to details, some unknown men kidnapped the two Iranian security officers and also took away their vehicle. The Iranian Security Force has cordoned off the area and has started an extensive search operation. There was so far no tip leading to the whereabouts of the kidnapped Iranian officials.

#5  I wonder if lotp = leader of the pack? If so, not only a moderator with no colour, but different names so we know when he's being official, and when he speaks just as himself. Clever!

#3  Sorry, forgot to add that the proposed pipeline would run through Baluchistan, but not serve their people.

#2  Not an expert, but I do know that the Balochs are a) heavily armed, b) fiercely independent and c) dislike the attempt by Iran to build a gas pipeline across Afghanistan to Pakistan and India.

#1  Well the map sez that's Baloch territory... Other than the fact that they're Sunnis, does that mean anything to / ring any bells with you PakiWaki experts?
