Adila Baloch, a woman arrested in Turbat for plotting a suicide attack, has opened up about her shocking experience, revealing how terrorists manipulate and blackmail women like her into committing such acts.
In a heartfelt press conference with her family, Adila, who used to work as a nurse on a World Health Organization project, expressed deep regret for being misled by extremists. She shared, “I was tricked into thinking I was doing something good. I was ready to carry out an attack without thinking about the innocent lives I could hurt. The terrorists promised me a better life.”
Adila admitted that she had followed these terrorists into the mountains without telling her family and mentioned that she wasn’t alone—other young Baloch people were also deceived.
She shattered the myth that Baloch women willingly take part in suicide bombings, stating, “Terrorists use blackmail and manipulation. I know this firsthand. I didn’t realize how I was being led astray.”
Adila urged her fellow Baloch youth to avoid her mistakes, saying, “These actions only lead to destruction, not freedom. If you meet people like this, please talk to your parents. This path is dangerous, and suicide bombing is wrong. I want to save others from making the same mistakes I did.”
