Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Kamal Sunday took notice of the death of Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM) senior member Arman Loni who was allegedly killed during a sit-in in Loralai on Saturday, and sought a report from commissioner of Zhob district, a private TV channel reported.
According to an official handout, the chief minister has directed that the report be submitted to him within 48 hours.
Following his death, Loni’s family and members of PTM maintained that he was killed in a police crackdown and demanded that the Balochistan government take notice of his death. The Quetta SSP operations, however, said on Sunday that the post-mortem exam did not find any signs of violence or injuries on the deceased’s body.
Earlier on Sunday, Member of National Assembly (MNA) from North Waziristan, Mohsin Dawar, said that the government of Balochistan had imposed a ban on his entry into the province, as well as that of his fellow parliamentarian Ali Wazir. Dawar, in his tweet, alleged that the provincial government had imposed the ban “to stop us from attending the funeral of Arman Loni”. Both Dawar and Wazir are prominent leaders of the PTM.
