A woman was abducted at gunpoint by militants in Balochistan on Wednesday, prompting security agencies to launch an urgent operation to recover her.
According to verified local sources, the incident took place between 4:30 pm and 4:45 pm in the Balcha area, when a Corolla car stopped outside the house of a woman named Nargis.
The woman went and sat in the vehicle which then drove away. Her husband and nephew chased the car and managed to stop it near Nasirabad.
Ground sources say that an armed man carrying a Kalashnikov stepped out of the vehicle. When the husband tried to stop them and said the woman was his wife, two men on motorcycles arrived and attacked him.
The attackers also took away the mobile phones of the husband and his nephew before taking the woman towards the jungle area near Nasirabad.
Police said the incident has been reported to all law enforcement and intelligence agencies and is being investigated from all angles.
Meanwhile, in a separate operation, security forces killed three India-backed terrorists in Panjgur district. According to ISPR, the militants belonged to Fitna-al-Hindustan and weapons and explosives were recovered from them.
