Man sentenced to death over US consulate attack
2008-03-06
An anti-terrorism court on Wednesday sentenced an accused, Anwarul Haq, to death on four counts of murder, life imprisonment on four counts of terrorism and a total of 40 years in imprisonment in the US consulate suicide bombing case.

Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC-III) for Karachi division headed by Judge Ahmed Nawaz Sheikh acquitted co-accused Usman Ghani. The prosecution produced 40 witnesses against accused Anwarul Haq. Haq was held guilty of provoking suicide bomber Raja Tahir to carry out the act. Niamat Ali Randhawa appeared as the special public prosecutor while the accused were represented by Muhammad Ilyas Khan and Muhammad Farooq. On March 2, 2006, US diplomat David Foy, his driver, a security guard and a Rangers sepoy were killed when a suicide bomber rammed his car into FoyÂ’s van exiting the US consulate in Karachi.
