Balochistan Governor Owais Ghani on February 6 accused Afghan warlords and drug barons of arming tribal militants, according to Daily Times. Ghani said that the deteriorating security situation was partly a spillover from Afghanistan due to the weakness of President Hamid Karzai’s Government. "Unfortunately Karzai’s central government is weak in the provinces, and the warlords and drug lords there are pushing arms into Balochistan," he told a news conference in Karachi. "We have successfully stopped 10 to 12 percent of arms movement from Afghanistan, but the border between Afghanistan and Balochistan is 1,200 plus kilometers long and it is very difficult to completely seal it."
