QUETTA: The police on a tip-off on Tuesday arrested three alleged terrorists linked to the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) from Mach. An informer told the police that some BLA miscreants were hiding in the mountainous area to blow up the main railway track and electricity poles, acting SP Abdul Baqi Baloch told a press conference. He said that a police team raided the area and surrounded around eight to nine BLA men, but some fled and only three were arrested. The SP said that the arrested men were from Dera Bugti, adding that they had confessed to a role in the confrontation between the Frontier Constabulary and the Bugti tribe on March 17, 2005. The criminals confessed that JWP leader Baramdagh Bugti had sent them to the Mach area to blow up the railway track and other key installations, the police officer said. However, he refused to give names of the arrested men due to security reason. Also, an oxcart carrying two farmers hit an anti-tank land mine on a dirt road in the town of Naseerabad, leaving one farmer dead and the other seriously injured, police said. The explosion occurred in the Balochistan province where tribal militants are accused of planting land mines to target security forces, said Illahi Bakhsh, a police official in the area.
