Tributes to Major Asumi Wafa alias Shah Dad and companions: BLF
China-provided spy planes conducted aerial surveillance of a BLF patrolling team in Kolwah, Pakistan on May 11, 2023. As dawn broke, spy planes and drones resumed their patrols, launching missiles at various targets. Meanwhile, the enemy dispatched commandos to hilltops via helicopters, but they were quickly attacked by Sarmachaars.
A lengthy skirmish broke out between the Sarmachaars and Pakistani military forces, during which the Sarmachaars managed to break the enemy’s encirclement and killed 12 SSG commandos.
On the night of May 12, the Sarmachars engaged in a battle with another commando squad a few kilometers away. While Major Asumi Wafa successfully helping his comrades escape, he sacrificed his own life in the process.
During his martyrdom, Major Asmi Wafa addressed his colleagues, saying that the protection of Baloch land and the survival of the Baloch nation is the most sacred duty for them. He emphasized the importance of being willing to sacrifice their lives for this cause, showing his unwavering commitment to the fight for Baloch independence.
The public relations department of the enemy military, ISPR, is attempting to conceal the fatalities of soldiers caused by Baloch Sarmachaars due to their troops’ decreasing morale. These attempts have been met with failure.
Major Asumi Wafa, also known as Shah Dad, son of Dilwash is a resident of Dandar Kolwah. He became a member of the regular ranks of BLF in 2012 and was appointed as the network commander due to his excellent skills, bravery, and positive relationships with the Baloch people.
Despite the Pakistani occupation forces burning his homes and subjecting his family to enforced disappearances, Asumi Wafa’s loyalty never wavered. His family was forced to live as IDPs, but his intentions remained strong.
Asumi Wafa was recognized for his perseverance and leadership skills by the regional council of the organization who appointed him as a major in 2022. He sets a great example through his bravery, tolerance, and excellent public relations. Major Wafa serves as an inspiration to all. Major Asumi Wafa completed his graduation From Atta Shad Degree College Turbat and was also a poet in the Balochi language.
Seth Abdul Samad, also known as Wajah Deenar, son of Muhammad Rahim, a resident of Teertej Awaran has been a member of the BLF since 2013. He quickly rose to the rank of lieutenant in the guerrilla force due to his strong political awareness and commitment to the cause.
Second Lieutenant Arif, also known as Shikari, son of Ali Bakhsh, a resident of Kolwah joined BLF in 2013. He has been a beacon of bravery and tolerance for his peers and a model of selflessness, prioritizing freedom movement and the organization over personal hardships. Despite his impoverished background, he has remained steadfast in his commitment to the cause. He has participated in various battles across different areas in Balochistan. As a result of his ten-year involvement in the Baloch national liberation movement, his loved ones were consistently subjected to mental and physical abuse by the Pakistani military forces.
Sarmachaar Ali (aka Kumuk), son of Bijjar from Pahu Awaran, has been a regular member of the BLF since 2019 and was previously an enthusiastic supporter of the organization. Having grown up in the mountains, he has become an expert in mountain routes and is adept at handling emergencies, due to this, his organizational name was Kumak (HELP/AID). Additionally, he was a skilled sniper in his guerilla unit, participating in various organizational missions and combat programs across Awaran.
Javed, also known as Umar Jan, was part of the BLF since 2019. He hails from Shapkol Kolwah and has actively participated in the battles in Awaran and Kolwah and surroundings. We must not forget that the enemy forces’ cruel actions have impacted Shaheed Umar Jan’s family as a whole. However, Umar Jan’s strong spirit as a young Sarmachaar never wavered in the face of hardship.
Sarmachaar Shah Mir, also known as Safar Khan, joined BLF in 2014. Hailing from Karki Tijaban Turbat, he was known Sarmachaar for his hard-working and fearlessness. Shah Mir played a crucial role in combat duties across Kolwah and Tijaban areas, successfully inflicting heavy damages on the enemy.
