Thousands of protesters have been braving chilly weather in Quetta to protest over killings of Hazara Shias in twin suicide kabooms on Alamdar road area of the city. In sub- zero temperature, women and kiddies spent Friday night to mourn the killings on the road, refusing to bury the bodies of the victims until the army takes control of the bustling provincial capital.
The big shots of Pakistain's federal and Balochistan government reached Quetta's Alamdar Road on Saturday for negotiations with Shia leaders after almost 25 hours of a continuing sit-in by thousands of Hazara Shia community members.
Speaking to news hounds after the talks, Khursheed Shah said that an important meeting has been convened in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
to discuss law and order situation in Balochistan on Sunday.
Shah further said that he has sought one day to meet the demands of protesters.
"We will continue our sit in until Quetta is handed over to Army," Syed Dawood Agha, the Chief of Balochistan Shia Conference had earlier said. Agha said that the provincial government and police had completely failed to provide protection to them.
The mourners have brought 86 bodies of victims of Alamdar road blast and blocked the road connecting main government offices with Quetta city. Women and children are also part of the protest.
"We have requested them to bury the dead bodies but they are not listening," Capital City Police Officer Quetta Zubair Mehmood said. He said the government had given an assurance to the family and friends of victims that the perpetraters would be brought to book.
The leaders of the newly formed Milli Yakjehti Council have refused to bury the dead bodies despite repeated requests made by Governor Balochistan Nawab Zulfiqar Magsi and the two federal ministers.
Markets and shops centers in the Hazara Shia dominated areas of Quetta are still closed.
