ISI offered 0.8 million dollars to journalist to kill Brahamdagh Bugti

In an interview to be aired on a Punjab-based television network tonight, Nawab Momand, who has worked with several leading media organizations, including Afghanistan's popular Tolo TV and Arman Radio, Afghanistan's first FM radio station, reveals that the ISI deposited 0.8 million USD (Rs.3.60 crores) with a Kabul jeweller to be paid to him on the day he killed Bugti, the grandson of the legendary Baloch leader, Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti.

But being true to his Pathan tradition of protecting a person who has sought shelter, Nawab Momand's conscience did not allow him to kill Bugti and he got in touch with the Afghan authorities.
