Advocate Atiq Ahmad Qadri, who was shot six times on Thursday in Landhi, died on Sunday. The fifty-year-old lawyer was attacked by two men in his house on the night of September 13. He was the second lawyer to be targeted in seven days.
His nephew, Imran Ahmad, said that the deceasedÂ’s condition had been critical from the very start and there was too much damage to expect he would recover. The doctors confirmed his death on Sunday and handed over the body to his relatives. His funeral prayers were held at Shahriya Mosque near his house in Landhi No. 4 and the burial took place at the Rehri Goth Graveyard. Qadri was a senior member of the Karachi Bar Association and has left behind four sons and two daughters. |
