Army Dog Center in Kohlu

Kohlu is a high, remote district in eastern Balochistan in the Koh-e-Suleiman, with the town of Kahan and small settlements scattered across mountain valleys. Roads are few, distances are long, and weather can close routes for days at a time.

Situations we are asked about in Kohlu

• Vehicles or equipment taken from a track between valley settlements.
• Livestock driven off from a mountain pasture overnight.
• A person missing on foot between two distant villages.
• A search across rocky, broken ground after rain.

In mountain districts, a quick, clear call helps more than anything else, because help has to travel far. Give us your nearest settlement, the track or road you are on, which direction the person or vehicle went, and the time. Rain and wind quickly erase what is on the surface, so please protect the exact spot with a clean sheet if you can, and keep people and animals away from it.

Report serious crimes to the police on 15, then call Army Dog Center on 0300-5780720. The line is open around the clock, and we will explain honestly what can be arranged for your location.

Mountain weather can shut a road within hours, so tell us whether the track to you is open. If you are at a pasture or small settlement, give the name of the nearest larger village. Please keep a record of the times you noticed the loss, and of anyone who has been at the spot since.

Please give us the name of a landmark such as a well, a school or a shrine near you, since many settlements share similar names across the district. Mention if a road is blocked by rain.
