In
continuing violence in Balochistan, two water
pipelines to the Pirkoh gas plant that was
repaired after 10 days was blown up again
and a minor incident of firing near Dera Bugti
occurred without causing any loss of life
on January 24, according to Dawn. Official
sources in Sui confirmed that two separate
water pipelines, to the Pirkoh gas plant and
town, were damaged on January 24- morning
by explosives. Sources added that without
de-mining the entire region it would be extremely
difficult to ensure a normal supply of water
to the Pirkoh and Loti gas plants through
pipelines.
Meanwhile,
a Jamhoori Watan Party spokesman said that
the situation was calm in Dera Bugti with
the exception of one incident in which security
forces had fired 12 shells on the northern
side of the town without causing any damage.
Elsewhere
in the province, a bomb explosion damaged
an under-construction residential quarters
of a school in the Wadh town and rockets were
fired on the Frontier Corps check post in
Barkhan.
