| [Dawn] Despite high security in the city, incidents of indiscriminate firing and murders continued unabated in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It may be the largest city in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... as four more people bit the dust on Thursday, DawnNews reported. In one of several incidents of the day, an office-bearer was killed and two men were maimed as unidentified gunnies shot up a local Pakistain People's Party office in Baldia Town. Residents of the area came out in protest of the killings, as they set tires on fire to block Hub River Road and Northern Bypass. Earlier in the day, two young men were bumped off by unidentified armed persons at Liaquatabad C-1 Area, police said. Both men were rubbed out near Muhammadi Ground. Police officer Fahim said the identity of the dear departed, seemingly in their mid-twenties, was yet to be ascertained. The bodies were shifted to Civil Hospital Bloody Karachi for medico-legal formalities. Meanwhile, ...back at the revival hall, the SWAT team had finally arrived... person or persons unknown shot up two men standing by a bus stop at Teen Hutti. One of the men succumbed to his wounds while the other was maimed. Earlier on Tuesday, at least eleven people were killed and more than 30 maimed as violence engulfed the city after unidentified armed assailants shot up a political rally. |
