(MQM) on Friday accused Rangers of "extra-judicially" killing four party workers Thursday night near the Northern Bypass in Bloody Karachi

's Sohrab Goth area.

The paramilitary force had Thursday night claimed to have killed four suspects in an 'encounter' on Northern Bypass near Sohrab Goth.

by Rangers a month ago," Farooq Sattar said, adding that family members of the dear departed had identified them as Mohammd Adeel, Kashif Khalil, Shahid Ghulam and Zohaib Ullah.

Sattar said his party had given a list of 150 "disappeared" workers to the prime minister, his cabinet members, Sindh CM Qaim Ali Shah and the DG Rangers.

"But no action has so far been taken on our demand and at least four of those 150 workers have been extra judicially killed," alleged Sattar.

But the paramilitary force, which has been in charge of the security operation in the city since 2013, in a blurb on Friday said MQM's allegations were "baseless propaganda."
