Killings heighten tension in several Karachi towns
Well, yeah. Killings will do that.
[Dawn] Several towns of the city remained in the grip of tension on Monday as funeral prayers were offered for some victims of assassinations and burial took place. They were killed in incidents of firing on Sunday night.

Business activities could not begin as shops and markets remained closed in many areas of at least three towns.

The west zone of the police organisational structure appeared to be the worst-affected where funeral prayers of all five victims were held. During the funeral prayers of two brothers -- Noman and Nabeel -- at Jama Masjid Siddiq-i-Akbar near Nagan Chowrangi, traffic remained suspended and shops closed. Funeral prayers of another victim, Ansar, were offered at Ghausia Masjid in Mohammedan Town of North Karachi.

The three victims were stated to be muscle of the Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat -- formerly (proscribed) Sipah-i-Sahaba -- and were killed when they came under fire in Sector 11-E of New Karachi. They were buried in the Mohammad Shah graveyard of North Karachi.
So somebody potted a few brownturbans. The heart [urp!] burns bleeds.
Business and commercial concerns in parts of North Karachi also remained closed and public and private transport off road, as frequent gunfire crackled the area forcing the residents to stay indoors.

"Since last month our 15 bully boyz have been bumped off only in Karachi," said Maulana Rab Nawaz of the Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat while addressing dozens of people attending the funeral prayers at Nagan Chowrangi. "The government and security authorities have failed to establish the writ of law in Karachi."
If they did that then members of proscribed organizations wouldn't be engaging in street battles, would they? They'd be in jug, where they belong.
At the same time during the funeral prayers of another victim at Imam Bargah Shah-i-Karbala, traffic on main Nazimabad Road remained suspended and business closed.
That'd be the Shiite planting. They'll have been bumped off by the Sipah-e-Sahabah hard boyz, providing the impetus for them to do in their tormentors. When the funerals are over both parties will stage separate "Death of America™" demonstrations and then go buy more ammunition.
Dozen of people staged a sit-in on the road to condemn the killing of 37-year-old Tanveer Abbas, who fell prey to gunnies's firing in Nazimabad within the remit of Rizvia cop shoppe.

"The terrorist elements have been given a freehand to target innocent people on sectarian ground," alleged Allama Abbas Kumaili of the Jafferia Alliance Pakistain. "Despite repeated assurances and warnings, we have not seen any action from the administration, police or security agencies."
They'll keep their pointy little heads down and emerge in a few days to beat up anybody who's low on ammunition...
Business in parts of Nazimabad, Gulbahar, Rizvia Society and Golimar remained completely closed. However,
The infamous However...
officials claimed that there was no untoward incident reported during and after the funeral prayers.

Tension also prevailed in the area during the funeral prayers of a Muttahida Qaumi Movement activist, Mohammad Farhan in mosque in Federal B Area, Block 16.
