"We have arrested one suspect [in connection to Zahra Shahid's murder], while there are others who will soon be arrested," Karachi police chief Ghulam Qadir Thebo told news hounds at a presser Thursday evening.

"This was not a robbery; this was an incident of assassination," Thebo told news hounds.

"We are carrying out further investigation and interrogation, and will share facts as they are further revealed. We are not able to share further information at this stage," he said.

"The suspect originally belongs to Hyderabad but lives in Karachi" in the DHA area, he said.

Police further claimed having uncovered clues leading to the possible arrest of further suspects.

Thebo declined to give any further information into the arrest or investigation.

Police sources had earlier told Dawn.com that up to three men have been arrested in connection to the PTI leaders murder.

The sources claimed the arrested men, said to be affiliated to a political party, have admitted to the murder of the PTI leader during interrogation.
