About 40 people including six former ministers have been restrained from leaving Pakistan for their alleged involvement in the recent series of bomb blasts in Quetta, senior military officials said in Islamabad. A series of bomb blasts rocked Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, in the last four months killing around 15 persons including nine soldiers.
An unknown group Baloch Liberation Front had claimed responsibility for these blasts, the officials said. Investigations are underway to apprehend those responsible for the bomb attacks in various parts of the province, the military officials told reporters on Friday.
They said that raids had been conducted and several persons had been taken in custody in this connection and were being interrogated.
Forty persons had been put on the Exit Control List (ECL) for being implied in the stigation, among them six former ministers.
