Earlier, 11 coal miners were killed in the Mach area of Balochistan after unknown armed terrorists and took them to nearby mountains before opening fire at close range. Police sources said the workers were on the way to work when the terrorist kidnapped them and took them to the nearby mountains.
Sources further said six of the works were dead on the spot, and five who were critically injured died on the way to a hospital. The preliminary investigation disclosed the attackers identified the workers as being from the Shia Hazara community and the militants took them away for execution, leaving others unharmed.
Prime Minister Imran Khan had condemned the miners’ killing, terming it yet another gutless inhumane act of terrorism. “Have asked the Frontier Corps to use all resources to arrest these killers and bring them to justice. The families of the victims will not be left abandoned by the govt, the PM said in a tweet.
