Pakistani authorities have reportedly declared Bollywood actor Salman Khan a “terrorist”

following comments he made in Riyadh, in which he referred to Balochistan separately from Pakistan.

At the event, Khan was quoted saying: “There are people from Balochistan, there are people from Afghanistan, there are people from Pakistan.

everyone is working here.”
The reports allege that a notification from the regional government sought to place Khan on

the “Fourth Schedule” of Pakistan’s Anti‑Terrorism Act (1997), designating him as an “Azad Balochistan facilitator”.

Officials in Islamabad have not yet issued a full federal confirmation of the designation,

and fact-checkers note that the document cited appears to have inconsistencies.
