QUETTA, May 17 (APP): The Balochistan Home Department has imposed Section 144 in Quetta for one month, banning the display or use of weapons, pillion riding, tinted glasses on vehicles and gatherings of more than four people, as security agencies remain on high alert to counter any potential threats.
Adviser to Home Department, Babar Yousafzai said on Sunday that the move came in response to concerns over possible actions by extremist elements, including those linked to outlawed organizations.
