Lots of love-stricken and helpless women have died on their way to Kech. (I too have formidable hurdles to cross in my search for Punhoo). As many as 20 paths have branched off from the highway and I am at a loss to know which particular road the Baluchi party had taken (Twenty is figuratively used to mean many.)
Note: The last stanza is capable of two spiritual interpretations as under:
a) Possibly the reference is to 73 sects in Islam, each holding divergent views on certain religious issues.
b) Besides the straight path prescribed by Islam there are lots of misleading by-lanes, which run parallel to or which intercept the aforesaid path at the instance of Satan. The traveller on the life's journey is naturally anxious to know the correct path and stick to it. In that connection he dreads the Quranic provisions translated below:
But whoso from amongst you disbelieves thereafter, he does indeed stray away from the right path. (12, Al-Maida)

On way to Kech died any who received no help,
Paths are twenty, which did they take, how can I tell?

Many destitute woman died within reach of Kech,
There are twenty pathways, I know pathways, I know not which one they followed.
