Pakistan Army Captures Top Baloch Separatist Leader
Pakistan's military has arrested Gulzar Imam, the founder and leader of the banned Baloch Nationalist Army, in an operation against a Baloch rebel group in the country's southwest. The Baloch Nationalist Army has been involved in dozens of "terrorist" attacks in the country, including those on security forces. Balochistan province has been a scene of rebellion by Baloch separatists for more than 20 years, initially for a share of the provincial resources, but later for complete independence.
