  • The saint Shah Noorani shrine is revered by Shia and Sunni Muslims.

    A dance ceremony called 'dhamaal' is held at dusk which is considered against Islam by terrorist groups like the Taliban and Islamic State (IS).

    Sufism, a mystical Islamic tradition that reveres living saints, worshipping them through music is seen as heretical by the radical terrorist groups such as the Taliban.

  • Balochistan Interior Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti said that the shrine was located in the remote mountains of Uthal and reaching there was difficult.

    The rescue operations were difficult due to the narrow passage to the Dargah and the darkness that had engulfed the area.

    The area also lacked basic amenities or security arrangements needed for quick relief of those injured.
