[DAWN] On January 3, 2014, Shakeel Muavia, a resident of Golra, was extremely happy - just a day earlier his brother, Mufti Muneer Muavia, was released from jail.In the morning, the newly released brother, Mufti Muneer left home to visit his father-in-law Maulana Abdul Hameed Sabri in Sector I-8.
Shakeel spent the day preparing dinner but in the afternoon, he got a call from his brother's father-in-law who asked him over.
"On my way to I-8, I passed a private hospital in H-8, where there was an unusual traffic jam.
"There were many police officials who were checking cycle of violence riders," he said.
"When I reached I-8, I found out that some motorbike riders had shot my brother. His companion, Asad Mehmood Abbasi, sitting by his side in the car was also killed.
"My brother's widow, 11-year-old daughter and three sons now live in Golra.
"I have been taking care of the entire family though we get some help from Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat
...which is the false nose and plastic mustache of the murderous
bannedextremist group Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistain, whatcha might call the
political wingof Lashkar-e-Jhangvi...
(ASWJ)," he added. He claims the police are not much help.
"Intelligence agencies know who are behind the liquidations but they are not ready to take action against them. I think that such assassination cannot be carried out without the involvement and information of intelligence agencies," he said Mufti Muneer is not the only member of ASWJ who has been assassinated in the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi in recent months.
As many as 13 members of the organization have been killed during the last 10 months.
All of them were shot and killed.
