KARACHI: Former president Pervez Musharraf Sunday ruled out separation of Balochistan, saying as long as there was Pak Army neither Balochistan would be separated nor would they let any harm come Pakistan's way.

In a recorded message addressing Pakistan First Forum, Musharraf said only three out of 160 tribes were causing trouble in Balochistan. "Only three to four thousand people having support from foreign elements were involved in terrorist activities," he added.

He said people lacked knowledge of actual on-ground situation in Balochistan, which, he added, is a home to four percent population of Pakistan. "Sixty percent of this population supports Pakistan," he added.

The former president claimed Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) was being supported by foreign elements.
