Baloch to boycott elections: Brahamdagh Bugti (THE NEWS)

GENEVA: Balochistan Republican Party (BRP) chief Brahamdagh Bugti has said that the Baloch nationals will boycott the coming elections in Balochistan as he doubts the transparency of the polls.



Brahamdagh Bugti was talking to Mehran Marri, Human rights activist Baloch representative in the United Nations.



"Our strategy is that people should not vote. It does not mean that we are against elections or political process, we have our own political party and we believe in political process. But these are not our elections, they are the elections of Pakistan and we believe that we were a separate country. Right now, we can't even imagine being the part of the election process in Pakistan," Bugti said.



He said that earlier political activists were used to be picked and were later released, but now they are being captured and tortured on daily basis. Earlier, such incidents would happen five to six times a month, but now this is happening on daily basis."



He further revealed that the situation of Balochistan is such that people are getting kidnapped and mutilated bodies are being found on daily basis.
