Twenty rockets hit Sui area
2004-02-22
Roughly 20 rockets hit Balochistan’s Sui area but no casualties were reported, said a Sui Police Station official on Saturday. He said 12 rockets hit a compression plant in a gas field and the Frontier Corps’ (FC) Bhambhor Rifles headquarters late Friday night. Bhambhor Rifles personnel opened fire, but no casualties were reported. Eight more rockets hit the Sui area on Saturday night, he said, adding that their target could not be confirmed and a police contingent had been dispatched to investigate. Earlier, residents in Sui said they heard six explosions. Reports from Sui stated that the FC had demolished civilian houses in an area allocated for a cantonment and that the local residents had retaliated. Several elders told a press conference that the FC personnel had violated the norms and values of the area and had rendered many residents homeless.
Haven't heard much from the Bugtis lately. Good to see they're still around.
