Balochistan leaders Brahamdagh Bugti, who is fighting for independence for Baluchistan, said that he would soon seek political asylum in India.
Currently, Bugti is exiled in Geneva, Switzerland and will file the asylum application to the Indian government through the Indian embassy in Switzerland. Baloch Republican Party, headed by Bugti, has decided to approach the International Criminal Court against Pakistani Army Generals.
Bugti also said that with the support of India, Pakistan and Afghanistan, his party will file a case against China at the International Court of Justice for construction works related to China Pakistan Economic Corridor.
Meanwhile, Baloch National Movement, another political party from Baluchistan, blamed Pakistani authorities for mass atrocities against the Balochi people since 2010 and said that Islamabad wants to forcibly keep Baluchistan under its authority so that it could exploit Baloch resources and trade it to Beijing for the China Pakistan Economic Corridor project.
Baluchistan lies in Pakistan’s north-west and has been demanding independence from the Pakistan administration for the last many decades.
