QUETTA: International mediation to resolve the Balochistan crisis is needed because the government and the Baloch people have reached a point where neither trusts the other, said Sardar Akhtar Mengal, former chief minister of Balochistan. "We don't trust Musharraf, his army and his political representatives," said Mengal at a press conference on Saturday. Mengal said the Baloch wanted the United Nations or the European Union to settle the issue between the Pakistan government and Baloch leaders. Mengal, the president of the Balochistan National Party, condemned the military operation in Dera Bugti and alleged that seven civilians were killed by security forces in the Marri and Bugti areas. " Some eight to 10 jet fighters and 12 helicopters bombed Dera Bugti for three days. They (the security forces) wanted to target Nawab Akbar Bugti, his grandson Brahamdag Bugti and Mir Balach Marri. The army is engaged in target killings," he alleged.
