Several Pakistani officials have gone missing
Two Pakistani Atomic Energy Commission workers were kidnapped yesterday along the Afghan border. This abduction came right after the Pakistani Ambassador to Afghanistan was reported missing. Pakistan has announced that it is starting to search for these missing men.
Pakistan has launched a massive search for the nation’s missing envoy to Afghanistan and two nuclear experts, who were abducted along with six others from the restive tribal area near Afghan border, foreign office said on Tuesday.
“Efforts are being made at all levels to find the missing ambassador”, Foreign Office Spokesman Muhammad Sadiq said…
Two officials of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) along with six others were also kidnapped on Monday by unidentified gunmen from a troubled northwestern area near the Afghan border.
“The PAEC officials Ziaullah and Bisaat Khan were kidnapped yesterday by unidentified armed men in Sheikh Badin area adjacent to the Lakki Marwat and Dera Ismail Khan districts,” local police chief Akbar Nasir earlier said.
Connected? I don’t know. But it does seem a little too coincidental.
