Fazlur Rehman Says State Writ Has Collapsed Across KP and Balochistan

فضل الرحمٰن: کے پی اور بلوچستان میں ریاست کی رٹ ختم ہو چکی

JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said the writ of the state has collapsed across the Pashtun districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and much of Balochistan — describing a breakdown of police authority in Bannu, Tank and Lakki Marwat, and warning that the army holds only the cities in Balochistan. The government and military reject the characterisation.

جے یو آئی-ف کے سربراہ مولانا فضل الرحمٰن نے کہا ہے کہ خیبر پختونخوا کے پشتون اضلاع اور بیشتر بلوچستان میں ریاست کی رٹ ختم ہو چکی ہے — بنوں، ٹانک اور لکی مروت میں پولیس کے نظام کی ٹوٹ پھوٹ کو بیان کرتے ہوئے، اور خبردار کرتے ہوئے کہ بلوچستان میں فوج صرف شہروں کو محفوظ رکھتی ہے۔ حکومت اور فوج اِس تصویر کو مسترد کرتی ہیں۔

The Balochistan National Party (BNP) held protests in Quetta and across Balochistan over an incident in Sorab district in which civilians, including women and children, were killed and at least 16 injured.
