ASWJ cleric gunned down in Korangi
 [DAWN] KARACHI: A holy man, said to be a district president of the Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat...which is the false nose and plastic mustache of the murderous bannedextremist group Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistain, whatcha might call the political wingof Lashkar-e-Jhangvi... , was rubbed out and his associate maimed in Korangi in an attack carried out apparently on sectarian grounds on Tuesday, police and party said. They said that Maulana Shabbir Ahmed Hyderi, 42, along with an associate, Khan Din, 35, was going to Malir from Korangi to attend an ASWJ meeting. When their cycle of violence reached near Singer Chowrangi, gunnies travelling in a car intercepted them, fired shots and fled. They sustained multiple bullet wounds in the chest and abdomen and were shifted to the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, where doctors declared Maulana Hyderi dead on arrival. Mr Din's condition was also critical and he was admitted for treatment, said Dr Seemin Jamali, the head of JPMC's emergency department. "Moulana Hyderi was the president of the ASWJ's Korangi chapter and his murder seems to be sectarian in nature," said Landhi SP Akhtar Farooq. A spokesperson for the ASWJ said the slain holy man was the district president of Korangi and also a member of the party's majlis-e-shoora for the Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... division and Mr Din was also an office-bearer. They were on their way to Malir from Korangi to attend a party meeting, he added. Activists of the ASWJ protested outside the mortuary of the JPMC and blocked the road for some time.
