and confesses to his involvement in the murders of Bloody Karachi

University dean of Islamic Studies Prof Dr Shakeel Auj and Prof Syed Sibte Jafar and an armed attack on Rangers personnel, according to Karachi police chief Ghulam Qadir Thebo.
"Police have arrested Mohammed Mansur, who says he belongs to the MQM," said Mr Thebo at a presser at the CPO here on Wednesday.
Four other suspects including Fahim Jabalpuri and Ehtasham were absconders in the case, he said.
"Prof Auj's murder was not related to sectarianism," said the Karachi police chief. At the outset of the investigation police had interrogated Prof Auj's colleagues some of whom were behind a blasphemy charge campaign after which the late professor lodged a case at the Mobina Town cop shoppe.
Prof Auj had received threatening messages before he was bumped off on main University Road at the Nipa bridge in Gulshan-e-Iqbal on Sept 18, 2014, while he was on his way to attend a ceremony at the Iranian Cultural Centre, Clifton, in a friend's car.
Dr Amna Afrin, student of the late professor, was hurt in the attack.
In the course of interrogation, the suspect also confessed to his involvement in the murder of Prof Syed Sibte Jafar who had been bumped off in Liaquatabad on March 17, 2013, said Mr Thebo.
The suspect also killed three workers of the Mohajir Qaumi Movement-Haqiqi in 1993 and was "also involved in an armed attack on Rangers personnel in New Town on Sept 10, 2014," said the city police chief.
He said the suspect also worked as a ward boy at the Sindh Government Hospital in Liaquatabad.
