Baluchistan
 
Hi there,

just because I did not see it yet in this chapter:

A couple of days a go an important tribal leader (Bugti) was killed in Baluchistan, and there is unrest now. See http://www.google.de/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=Baluchistan

The army and/or the demonstrators has or had sealed of the region. I do not know whether it is open again.

Locals here are still advising agains travelling in Baluchistan now and guess that things will have calmed down in a week or so (but I heard that for around two weeks now).

Also, I heard of a German motorbiker who got shot at on the Iranian side of Baluchistan near Zahedan, travelling minor roads. Did not hear details, but friends of mine apparantly met him alive and unhurt (though shaken) in Pakistan.

Regards

Lars
