WASHINGTON DC, Jan 8, 2010: A pro-independence Baluch organization has condemned the government of Pakistan for obstructing U.S. development projects in their occupied homeland and said Pakistan has absolutely no right to violate international norms in Baluchistan.
"We take serious notice of Pakistani authorities obstructing the legitimate work of the U.S. embassy in Baluchistan. The latest incidents should be an eyeopener for Washington that Pakistan is neither a friend nor an ally," two presiding council members of the American Friends of Baluchistan, Rashid Baloch and Malik Baloch, said in a statement early Friday.
The Baluch condemnation followed Pakistan's detention of U.S. embassy officials in the Baluch port town of Gwadur.
"Gwadur is the jewel of Baluchistan. The Baluch dream that one day their port city will compete with Hongkong and Singapore, but the Pakistan Navy has illegally occupied hundreds of acres lands at the priceless port," the A.F.B. activists said.
