Eight unidentified armed motorcyclists stormed a private mining site in Balochistan's Chagai district on Wednesday, abducting seven workers and taking away equipment and supplies worth millions of rupees, according to sources. The abducted workers included four labourers from Gilgit identified as Wajahat, Wajid, Shahid and Sabir, and three local workers identified as Ziauddin of Dalbandin, Shah Saleem of Mahian, Chagai, and Saeed Muhammad, also a resident of Mahian, Chagai. Sources at the private mining company said the attackers stayed at the site for several hours and carried out the operation without haste before fleeing with the abducted workers and stolen property.
