(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) lamabad April 10 - Pakistan's Interior Ministry on Thursday rejected banned United Baloch Army's (UBA) claim for the terror attack on the fruit and vegetable market in the federal capital. An Interior Ministry spokesman said initial probe suggests UBA had nothing to do with the blast according to a report by Dawn.com. "Accepting responsibility for the attack by this organisation is not just surprising but also ridiculous" he said. He said an investigation by intelligence and security agencies had indicated that the blast had roots somewhere else. "Those responsible for it will be chased after completion of the investigation" he said. UBA spokesman Mureed Baloch told Dawn's Quetta correspondent that his organisation was behind the bomb attack in the Rawalpindi-Islamabad fruit and vegetable market. "Our organisation has carried out the bomb attack in fruit and vegetable market in the twin city in reaction to operations conducted by security forces in Kalat Turbat Panjgur Mastung and other parts of Balochistan" he said. The UBA also claimed responsibility for the Jaffar Express bomb blast in Sibbi on Tuesday that killed 17 people
