Occupied Balochistan, Zadedan: In the aftermath of two suicide bomb attacks in the capital city of West Balochistan, Zahedan, the Iranian revolutionary guards have started an indiscriminate anti Baluch crackdown. Reports pouring from Zahedan indicate that the Iranian security forces have started to arrest Baluch people on random basis; many Baluch houses and business centers have been set ablaze. Three members of Baluchistan parliament resigned saying that due to Iranian federal government’s wrong and suppressive polices the situation in Baluchistan is getting out of their control.

According to open sources after the suicide bomb attack on two Shite Mosque situated in the city of Zahedan unknown arsonists set ablaze several shops owned by Baloch dwellers. At least one Baluch mini market reportedly has been completely burnt to ashes. It has been reported that the Iranian security forces have arrested several Baluch in and around Zahedan and Sarawan.

Independent sources also reported that a Baluch funeral ceremony was first attacked by the Zabolis but soon the Iranian security person reached, pretending to calm the situation, but they arrested most the Baluch participants of the funeral and not a single Zaboli was arrested.

The three member of parliament who quit their seats belonged to Zahidan and Zabil and have been named, Mr Hussain Ali Sheryari, Mr Paiman Firzosh & Abbas Ali Noora has resigned, Mr Hussain Ali Sheryari has criticizing the policies of the central government and stated that ethnic and religious tension in Baluchistan (Iranian occupied) was on the rise due government’s wrong polices. He said that the central government instead the religious and ethnic issues of the Baluch have chosen to use brutal force against them and now the situation in Baluchistan are getting out of hand.

It is worth noting that Iran like Pakistan keeps on blaming that foreign hands are behind Baluchistan unrest. Whereas regional experts on Baluchistan believe that such allegations are just to cover the failure of Iranian and Pakistani central governments who failed to address and resolve Baluchistan issue peacefully.
