QUETTA: A Shia teacher was killed on his way to school on Wednesday. The police termed it an act of sectarian violence. Murid Abbas, also a Zakir or a Shiite religious speaker, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen. The Shia community will bring out a religious procession tonight to commemorate the death anniversary of Hazrat Ali (AS). A Shia leader Rahim jaferi said that it was the 17th incident of sectarian violence since March 2004, when suicidal bombers had attacked a religious procession killing 50 people.He said the Shia community would protest because the government had done nothing to arrest the attackers despite previous assurances. Banned religious organizations were blamed for these attacks. Jaferi said that they had nominated the assailants but no action was taken. More than a 100 people were killed in two major incidents of sectarian violence in 2003 and 2004.
