A RADIO REPORT FROM PANJGOUR
The creation of Pakistan proved to be a dooms-day for the people of not only Balochistan but also for the whole Pakistan. Pashtuns were mercilessly butchered in Peshawar, the Bengalis were quelled ruthlessly, Sindh assembly was dissolved and their members were chased and arrested. The Muslim military & bureaucrats of of British Raj were given free hands to follow their "expansionist policy" who invaded Kashmir, Quraqaram, and Balochistan.
As regards Balochistan, the barbaric and injustice actions of the elite class of Panjabi/Mohajirs - through their armed forces - has left behind the cruelties of Changez Khan and even the European colonial powers.
Balochs are under the Pakistan Military attacks. Due to the strict ban on media, refusal of Pakistani authorities to permit the Journalists to visit the besieged areas of Balochistan.....Radio Gwank Balochistan labours to collect the news which relates to the ground realities about the current situation in Balochistan.
The above link of "Radio Gwank Balochistan" describes a story, based on interviews, about a deliberate attack of Pakistani "Narcotic Forces «upon a car in which three respectable Balochs were travelling for a picnic. The car stopped near the armed forces but they (Narcotic Forces) opened fires in which Mr. Khalil Ahmed and Mr. Agha Manzoor were killed. Mr. Arif Baloch was injured. The relatives of the deceased have registered a case in the court, against the Panjabi soldiers but they are still on duty and their services are not terminated. The relatives of the deceased appeal for justice.
This is one of the drops from the ice-mountain. Balochistan is suffering from such accidents since 1948. The political activists, patriotic Baloch national leaders and Sardars are being killed. Balochistan is being turned into a no-go area for not only foreign Journalists, NGOs or diplomats, but also for common Baloch citizens, who have no freedom of movement. There are 56 military Garrisons, 168 cantonments and countless check-points on the roads of Balochistan where, after about 25 Km, one can see the check-points where the terrafic is stopped by "iron chains" called ...Saokallis...in the language of local Balochs who speak Brahui language.
In such Saonkali-check points - iron chains - the mother of Shaheed Assad Mengal and Muneer Mengal was arranged to be killed by Pakistani Guards. The family of Sardar Attauallah Khan Mengal was travelling to the town of Wadh. According to the driver of the jeep, the check-point was clear but when they reached near, abruptly the chains were raised which resulted the turn-up of the jeep. The first wife of Sardar Mengal and the mother Mengal was killed in this conspiracy.
It`s no wonder that not only Balochs but other ethnic minorities are dreaming for their freedom...for disintegration of Pakistan.
