Islamabad, Feb. 28 (ANI): US Congressman Dana Rohrabacher has requested a referendum to be held in Balochistan on the question of independence, which would challenge the claims by Islamabad that the Baloch want to be part of Pakistan.
Rohrabacher said this while addressing a gathering at a conference entitled "Global and Regional Security Challenges in South Asia: What Future for Balochistan", reports The Dawn.
Rohrabacher, who was a key speaker at the conference, gave a poignant speech urging the right to self-determination for the Baloch people.
He also called for Pakistani officials to be tried for war crimes.
He further said that America has to quit giving any military aid to Pakistan who uses the money to murder and suppress the Baloch people. (ANI)
