[Dawn] President Asif Ali Zardari has condemned the Karachi terrorist attack and has appealed for calm and restraint and urging the people of Karachi not to be provoked. President said that the fanatics wanted to rip up frenzy to achieve their ulterior designs and said that a deliberate attempt seems to be afoot to turn the fight against militants into a sectarian clash and make the people fight one another.
He said these are challenging times and we have to guard against such attempts by using force against extremists on the one hand and exhibiting wisdom and patience on the other.--
