QUETTA, March 4: Lawyers boycotted court proceedings here on Monday in protest against the government failure to trace Abdul Wasey Tareen, the Prosecutor General of Balochistan.

Mr Tareen went missing last week while on way to Islamabad from Quetta by car.

In response to a call by the Balochistan Bar Association, lawyers did not appear before the high court, sessions and civil courts, anti-terrorism court and judicial magistrates..—Correspondent
