The bodies of three individuals bearing bullet wounds were recovered on Saturday in the Dukki district of Balochistan, according to local sources.
Levies officials said the bodies were discovered near Naran Nadi in the Nana Sahib Ziarat area. All three victims had been shot, and flags of Balochistan were found near the bodies.
The deceased were shifted to a nearby hospital for post-mortem examination; however, their identities have yet to be confirmed.
It is worth noting that in several similar cases across Balochistan, Pakistani security forces have claimed to kill members of armed groups during operations. However, rights groups and families of victims have later identified the deceased as individuals who had previously been forcibly disappeared.
