simply trade in the "legitimate rights" of
"Balochs" for lasting peace in the region.He

threats and strong worded statements of the
government, who were simply beating about
the bush. Talking to Online via satellite
phone, he said that Balochis were killing and
getting killed. He claimed heavy losses
suffered by governmental forces, which had .
to be airlifted by at least two helicopters. He also accused the government of using chemically treated bombs in
Sangsella area, which are causing various infectious diseases among the common masses of the region.

but the "resistance fighters" are carrying on their struggle according to "their own will".He claimed that Balochi
masses are also fully supporting the "fighters", because they (masses) have full faith in the "sincerity of their
cause".

and strong worded statements being conveyed via media sources. Expressing his views about merger of three
BSO factions, he lauded the act and said that " better to be late than never". He said that he expected such spirit

frontiers of the province, enabling resistance fighters to smuggle in weaponry worth Rs 50 crore, as is being
alleged by the government. Replying to a question about the effect of vacating the city of Dera Bugti, he denied that
