Meanwhile, Basham Baloch, the spokesperson of Baloch liberation front,
telephoned
Radio Gwank from an undisclosed place, saying that B l f had thwarted
the Pakistani
aggression that was why it had been targeting civilians in our villages
and cities
in sheer frustrations. And we are determined to force Pakistani
occupying forces out
of our country. Failure is what Pakistanis are destined to in
Balochistan. Contrary
to Geneva Convention, Pakistani forces are targeting our civilian
population. They
cannot compete with Baloch National Forces in the battle fields.
