LEA personnel among 6 booked for murder of JI worker in Karachi
[DAWN] Surjani police on Wednesday registered a murder case against six suspects, including a member of a law enforcement agency, for allegedly killing a Jamaat-e-Islami
...The Islamic Society, founded in 1941 in Lahore by Maulana Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, aka The Great Apostosizer. The Jamaat opposed the independence of Bangladesh but has operated an independent branch there since 1975. It maintains close ties with international Mohammedan groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood. the Taliban, and al-Qaeda. The Jamaat's objectives are the establishment of a pure Islamic state, governed by Sharia law. It is distinguished by its xenophobia, and its opposition to Westernization, capitalism, socialism, secularism, and liberalist social mores...
(JI) worker and causing injuries to three others in 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...
a day earlier.

A gun attack on JI's Taiser Town office early on Tuesday morning had left one of its worker dead and three others injured, according to police and party sources.

They said gunnies riding cycle of violences pulled up outside the party office in Sector 36-C where workers were busy arranging relief goods for distribution among the area's residents in the backdrop of the ongoing lockdown to contain the spread of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
, and opened fire on some workers.

One of the six people booked is an LEA personnel. The three named suspects have not been arrested so far.

Officials said that the JI worker's killing could be the result of a clash between the two sides that took place on Monday evening. On that day, they said, JI workers and activists of another group were busy distributing ration among people separately in the same area. The activity took an ugly turn when a mob-like situation emerged and the two sides blamed each other for the mismanagement.

"The argument turned into a scuffle between the workers of the two sides. They pelted stones and used sticks and bricks to attack each other. The situation turned normal after area residents intervened and police also rushed to the site and dispersed the activists," said an official of the Surjani Town cop shoppe.

During the clash between the two groups, who were said to belong to the same neighbourhood, a person from the firing suspects' side was injured.

Subsequently, on Tuesday morning, some gunnies riding cycle of violences pulled up outside the JI office. Two of them got off the two-wheeler and fired shots at a group of workers standing outside the office and sped away along with their aides.

"As a result, 35-year-old Javed Ahmed went titzup while three others — the elder brother of the dear departed, 22-year-old Azeem and 18-year-old Adnan — sustained bullet wounds," said the official.
