A violent mob in garb of so-called Baloch Raji Muchi (Baloch national gathering) assaulted security forces’ personnel employed for security duties in Gwadar district on Monday; resultantly, Pakistan Army Sepoy Shabbir Baloch embraced shahadat, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said.
The ISPR said that Sepoy Shabbir Baloch was a 30-year-old resident of Balochistan’s Sibi district.
In addition, the unprovoked assaults by the violent protesters resulted in injuries to 16 soldiers including an officer.
While on the other hand, the ISPR said, fake and malicious propaganda is being spread on social media using doctored pictures and videos by the propagandists to gain sympathy and support for the unlawful violent march.
The ISPR said that security forces have displayed extreme restraint to avoid unwarranted civilian casualties despite provocations. It said that the violent actions of the mob are unacceptable and those responsible will be brought to justice.
The ISPR said that all citizens are urged not to fall prey to the propaganda, remain calm and peaceful, and to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in maintaining public safety and order.
Furthermore, it said that the security forces of Pakistan, in step with the nation, remain determined to thwart attempts of sabotaging peace and stability of Balochistan.
