Kharan-June 11, 2025: In a major breakthrough for public safety and law enforcement, the Kharan Levies Force successfully conducted a high-risk rescue operation, safely recovering two kidnapped individuals and arresting two facilitators involved in the crime.
According to official sources, the incident took place on June 10, 2025, when Ahmad Ali and Muhammad Islam, residents of Nooroz Qalat, were abducted by unidentified gunmen while en route to a picnic.
The incident was immediately reported to the Kharan Levies at approximately 3:00 PM, prompting a swift and strategic response.
Under the direct supervision of Deputy Commissioner Munir Ahmed Soomro and Assistant Commissioner Abdul Hameed, a tactical operation was launched. The team, led by SHO Risaldar Abdul Baqi Siapad, included officers and jawans from various checkpoints, including Nooroz Qalat and Gardina, supported by seasoned personnel such as Yousuf Faqeer, Abdul Majeed, Naseer Ahmed, Abdul Fateh, Saadat Ali, Allahdad Shah, Shoaib Ahmed, Naeem Baloch, Atta-ur-Rehman, and Allahdad.
The rescue operation turned into a tense armed encounter, lasting several hours in the mountainous terrain. Facing mounting pressure from advancing forces and precision response tactics, the abductors were forced to release the hostages and flee into the rugged hills.
The Levies successfully rescued both victims unharmed and arrested two key facilitators of the kidnapping gang, identified as Munir Ahmed and Muhammad Qasim, sons of Ghaus.
Authorities confirm that the anti-terrorism investigation is ongoing, and efforts are underway to track down the remaining suspects involved in the criminal network.
