Unidentified gunmen on Wednesday kidnapped two women tourists from the Czech Republic in Balochistan, officials said. Local government officials said the women entered the province from Iran as tourists and were abducted from Chaghi. "Both the women were from Czech Republic and entered in Pakistan as tourists," Akbar Hussain Durrani, the provincial home secretary told AFP. "Gunmen stopped their bus in the Nok Kundi area and abducted both of them."
Durrani said women were being escorted by a tribal policeman when they were abducted. The guard was also taken captive but was later freed.
