[DAWN] Police authorities on Saturday ordered an inquiry into the killing of a first-year female medical student Nimrah Baig, who was rubbed out during an exchange of fire between police and suspected robbers in North 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...
yesterday.
The incident had happened when a police party had shot it out with a group of suspects, who were fleeing after committing robberies. One suspected robber was also killed during the Anda Mor 'encounter'.
The police claimed that the 20-year-old Nimrah Baig was killed from the firing of the robbers. However,
alcohol has never solved anybody's problems. But then, neither has milk...
a medical examination of the victim carried out at the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) revealed that a bullet fired from a 'high-velocity weapon' caused her death.
Additional police surgeon of the JPMC, Dr Sheeraz Ali Khowaja, told Dawn that in his opinion the bullet was fired from a "high-speed velocity weapon or rifle firearm".
The dear departed girl's uncle, Zaki Ahmed, told Dawn that the "circumstances" suggested that it was police’s firing, which led to her death. He demanded an impartial inquiry into the matter.
