The coal mine workers have given Thursday (today) as ultimate call for the release of their kidnapped friends. Many have already started to migrate.
According to detailed reported the miners have been protesting from past four days against kidnapping of their eight associates from Peer Ismael area of Balochistan. All the workers of coal mines from neighbouring areas of Quetta including Margat, Peer Ismael, Ziyarat, Degari, Sooreng and Maarwaad have given the final ultimatum for the liberty of their fellow workers.
They further said that if their fellow coal-miners were not set free until Thursday (Today), then they will all go back to their native village and abandon the work. Source reported that several labourers have already started to migrate from the aforementioned areas fearing for their security.
Baloch resistance organisations, fighting for freedom of Balochistan, have been constantly warning Pakistani and multinational companies to stop investing in Balochistan. The Baloch pro-freedom political parties and armed organisation say that Balochistan’s natural resources are the national wealth of people of Balochistan and only they have the right to benefit from the resources.
The Baloch fighters have also warned common labourers several times to avoid working for Oil, Gas and Coal exploration companies in Balochistan because they could be targeted any time.
