Death toll rises to 25 in Karachi violence
KARACHI: The total number of killings in Karachi in the last 24 hours rose to 25 on Wednesday as incidents of violence continued in the city, DawnNews reported.
Police sources said five bullet-riddled bodies were recovered from a mini-bus in Gulshan-i-Iqbal area. Three of the victims were identified as Mohammad Wali, Ghulam Jan and Ahmed Jan.
Sources said all five of them had been abducted.
Feelings are running high between the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and Awami National Party (ANP), which represent different ethnic communities and straddle volatile political fault lines.
How come Ishaq Dar and Saad Rafiq didn't condemn these killings in today's press briefing?
