QUETTA: Police have recovered five foreign nationals during a search operation in Balochistan's troubled Kech District on Tuesday, said an official.
Bashir Brohi, the District Police Officer (DPO) told Dawn.com that a police party conducted a raid in Overseas Colony in Turbat and recovered five foreigners. The foreign nationals include three Tanzanians, one Nigerian and one Kenyan. "The foreigners were chained inside a room in an abandoned house," Brohi said. The DPO said that police had received information that some kidnappers had brought five foreign nationals in Turbat.
"Acting on an intelligence report, police raided the house", he said. Brohi stated that two foreign nationals were abducted in 2012, two in 2013 and one was kidnapped in 2014, most probably from Pakistan's largest city Karachi. "We are also interrogating the recovered foreign nationals," he said, adding that it was being probed as to how they had entered into Pakistan. District Kech is considered to be one of the sensitive districts of Balochistan. Baloch insurgents have been operating in the area for more than a decade. However, police said that this kidnapping seems to be the work of human or drug traffickers in the area
