Karachi violence continues; five killed
[Dawn]  The violent incidents of assassinations continued in Bloody Karachi...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It may be the largest city in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... as five more people, including a Rangers officer, were killed on Thursday, DawnNews reported. A Rangers officer, Abdul Hameed Chachar, was rubbed out in the area of Medina colony in Korangi, the police sources said. The dear departed officer was a sub-inspector in Pakistain's paramilitary force. A man was rubbed out at Maripur road near a hotel. According to MLO of the Civil Hospital, the man was shot in the head. A man was rubbed out and the other received injuries in the area of Lee market near an eye clinic. A dead body was found from Lyari ...one of the eighteen constituent towns of the city of Karachi. It is the smallest town by area in the city but also the most densely populated. Lyari has few schools, substandard hospitals, a poor water system, limited infrastructure, and broken roads. It is a stronghold of ruling Pakistan Peoples Party. Ubiquitous gang activity and a thriving narcotics industry make Lyari one of the most disturbed places in Karachi, which is really saying a lot.... River. The funeral prayers of Mehdi Raza and Fakhar Abbas were rubbed out by the criminals in Orangi town, have been offered. Posted by: Fred 2012-06-01 |
