Arms Killa Abdullah

 

The influx of Afghan refugees in the district has created many social and economic problems for Pakistan in general and for Balochistan in particular; they have brought lethal weapons and sold them to the locals at throwaway prices. The arms are bought by two types of persons:

 

(1) Those who have some kind of rivalries

(2) Those who seek protection and prestige

 

The demonstration of arms further flared the intensity of greed for arms. Thus the result was the birth of a Kalashnikov culture. The major types of arms found in the district are:

 

(1) China Automatic rifle

(2) Kalashnikov

(3) T.T Pistols

(4) Mousers

(5) LMG

(6) Sten Guns

 

It is worthwile mentioning that even rocket launchers have been used in the fighting between tribes.
