Police registered a case against unknown suspects for murdering a Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) worker in North Karachi three days ago.

The FIR was lodged at the Khawaja Ajmair Nagri police station under sections 302, 324/34 and 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act 1997 by Amir Ahmed, a brother of 48-year-old slain activist Salman Wakeel Commando.

The PSP worker, a Grade 16 teacher of a primary school and resident of Sector 5A/1, North Karachi, was on his way to Pela School to pick up his wife, also a schoolteacher, after picking up his son from another school when motorcyclists sprayed the vehicle with bullets and sped away.

Wakeel suffered seven bullet wounds to different parts of his body, including his face and head, and died on the spot. His son Abdus Saboor was wounded in the brazen attack but he was stated to be out of danger.

The police have yet to make any progress in the investigation. SHO Rao Nazim said that the police were waiting for forensics and geo-fencing reports.

He said they were collecting more CCTV footage as the faces of the assailants obtained earlier were not clear. Talking to The News after the incident, West Zone police chief DIG Nasir Aftab had confirmed that it was an act of targeted killing. “The target killers were highly trained and professionals like Karachi had been witnessed in the past.”

DIG Aftab had said: “Not only us but all the law enforcement agencies, including the CTD and the CIA, are also investigating the case. We are putting maximum resources and we are quite hopeful that we would probe this case and will arrest the suspects soon.”
