[Pak Daily Times] At least eleven people were killed and another 10 injured in various incidents of assassination across Karachi on Saturday. The assassinations in the city continue despite a ban on riding double and waving guns, and the grant of extra powers to Pakistain Rangers to maintain peace in the country's financial hub. Tension prevailed in the city as unidentified assailants torched four vehicles and a number of shops and pushcarts.
