Attack on Izhar an Attempt to Create Unrest in Karachi: IG Sindh

Karachi (September 3, 2017): Sindh police chief AD Khawaja claimed that the attempt on Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) leader Khawaja Izharul Hassan’s life was a conspiracy to push Karachi into the flames of unrest.

Talking to media persons AD Khawaja said the probe into the attack was yielding positive results but more time was needed for a thorough probe.

Izhar escaped an attempt on his life in Buffer Zone on first day of Eid when he was returning from Eid prayers some men ambushed his vehicle. A policeman and a child was martyred in the attack. One of the assailants was also shot dead.

The Sindh police chief said after the MQM had split, the leaders of Pakistan faction had been warned of the dangers it might face. He added that speculating on who was behind the attack would, however, just hamper the investigation.
