"Third force" behind Balochistan crisis: Rehman Malik

Pakistan Interior Minister Rehman Malik has said that external forces are responsible for the volatile situation in Balochistan.

"Not the Army or the Frontier Corps (FC), but a third force is disturbing the law and order situation in Balochistan," The Dawn quoted Malik, as telling the Pakistan Senate.

He said 85 percent of the Aghaz-i-Huqooq-i-Balochistan package announced by Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani had been implemented and work on remaining components of the package was under way.

Malik also said that a detailed presentation would be given next week to Baloch parliamentarians on the government's policy for the province and on the implementation of the package. (ANI)
