Jamaat-i-Islami plans protests in '50 areas' across Karachi

[DAWN] Jamaat-e-Islaami (JI) has called for protests at 50 locations across 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...
today, a day after yesterday's riots paralysed major arteries in the city.

Confirming the planned protests, JI's social media head Kashif Hafeez told Dawn.com their renewed protests against K-Electric began right after Asr prayers today.

Areas where the party plans to hold protests include Malir Zone, Shah Faisal, Gulshan Zone (near Disco Bakery), Jauhar Zone (near Samama Shopping Mall), Lea Market, Garden Area, Fresco Chowk, Defence Moar, Baloch Colony, Kala Pul, Karimabad, UP Moar, Liaquatabad, Daewoo Chowrangi, Malir Press club, Katti Pahari, and Sher Shah Chowrangi.

The call for mass protests comes after yesterday's events which saw a a protest erupt into a standoff between the police and JI workers when the Karachi chapter Emir Hafiz Naeemur Rehman was tossed in the calaboose
Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up!
by the police.

JI workers then proceeded to block Shara-e-Faisal and other major thoroughfares causing hardship to commuters and skirmished with law enforcing authorities.
