QUETTA: The police on Tuesday announced that 11 kidnapped labourers of a construction company, including the manager, working on a World Bank-funded water channel project had been recovered.
They were abducted by around two dozen armed men on gunpoint on October 22, 2025, from Mola tehsil of Khuzdar district.
A banned organisation had claimed responsibility for the kidnapping.
At least six of the 10 labourers belonged to Sindh, while the others were local residents.
The administration and police made efforts for their release in coordination with the tribal elders.
“All 11 employees of the company were recovered last night after remaining in captivity for almost four and a half months,” a senior police officer said.
