More than 20 labourers abducted in Balochistan's Musakhel
Terrorists had killed seven Punjabis on Saturday in Panjgur
Quetta: At least 20 labourers were abducted by armed men in Musakhail on Sunday amid the growing terrorism wave in Balochistan.
According to police, the gunmen opened fire on the camp of the labourers working for a gas company, set ablaze eight bulldozers and took away over 20 labourers with them.
The incident comes hours after seven labourers were brutally killed by unidentified gunmen in a house in Panjgur district of the Balochistan.
Police detailed that the labourers were residing in a house in the district's Khuda-e-Abadan area, where the incident occurred and left seven people dead and one wounded.
Both the Musakhel and Panjgur incidents reflect the security challenges faced by the province which has witnessed the brunt of terrorist attacks, along with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, amid the increase in terrorist incidents faced by the country in recent months.
This is pertinent to mention here that last month, 23 passengers were killed after being offloaded from buses and trucks in the Rarasham area of Muskhel district.
