Quetta:In a recent incident in Balochistan, an armed group mistakenly set fire to a truck near Panjgur, believing it carried minerals. The truck’s owners, Al-Makran Customs Clearing Agents, clarified that it was a local vehicle transporting goods, not minerals. The group later admitted to the misunderstanding but took responsibility for the act.
Expressing grave concern, the truck owners highlighted the challenges faced by impoverished transporters in the region. They called for a thorough investigation to ensure justice for the vehicle owner and to prevent further harm to transporters’ livelihoods. The incident has sparked fear among transporters, who demand transparent investigations to safeguard their vehicles and businesses from similar incidents in the future.
