Re: Sindh govt wants to wipe out Mohajirs - Altaf Hussain
Bhai is hard core criminal. He will always be there to protect his killers no matter what.
**Earlier on Tuesday, AIG of Karachi police, Shahid Hayat, had said that Rizvi was associated with MQM’s Unit 178, adding that during the initial investigation, the accused had confessed to killing Randhawa.
Hayat had moreover said that Rizvi had killed Randhawa for pursuing the case of TV reporter Wali Babar who had been killed in 2011.
Rizvi is also involved in targeted killings of eight other people, the AIGP had said during Tuesday’s briefing, adding that raids were being conducted to arrest three other accomplices of the accused.
Police had claimed to have recovered a 9MM pistol with five rounds from Rizvi’s possession.
Randhawa, a senior lawyer, who was also a leader of the Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz’s legal wing for Sindh, was shot dead in an attack in Karachi’s Nazimabad area last week. The attack had also left his son injured.
Wali Khan Babar, a journalist who worked for a private television channel, was gunned down in January 2011 in Liaquatabad area of Karachi. Several witnesses in the journalist’s murder were killed one after the other, developments which also attracted the apex court’s attention.
