Magsi announces Rs1mn each for Quetta blast victims

QUETTA: Announcing compensation for the bereaved families of Quetta blast victims, Governor Balochistan, Zulfikar Magsi, Saturday night pinned the rampant terrorism on the intelligence agencies' failure to do their job, Geo News reported.

“Seemingly, the agents are either too scared to go after the terror-mongers or too clueless to even know who they are dealing with”, said he talking to media here after visiting Combine Military Hospital (CMH) to inquire after the health of victims,.

They have no idea whatsoever, what’s going on, which is alarming, Magsi added.

“It’s their job to preempt such attacks. That’s what they are paid for. Alas! They failed all these innocent people who died in this catastrophic bomb blast”, the governor said further.

Magsi also announced a compensation worth Rs100,000 for the bereaved families of each fatal victim of the Quetta blast.
