Here is what I just read on “The News” website and am very confused about it:

The News International: Latest News Breaking, World, Entertainment, Royal News
PESHAWAR: Senior Minister Khyber-Pakhutnkhwa Bashir Ahmed Bilour Sunday visited residence of Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s slain leader Dr. Farooq Sattar and expressed sympathies with the mourning family and MQM leaders. Condemning the killing of Dr. Farooq Sattar, Bashir Bilour demanded of the concerned authorities to complete the probe into the heinour crime and bring the culprits to justice.

What is going on?

Text of news published in English version at Geo website:
Senior Minister Khyber-Pakhutnkhwa Bashir Ahmed Bilour Sunday visited residence of Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s slain leader Dr. Farooq Sattar and expressed sympathies with the mourning family and MQM leaders.

Condemning the killing of Dr. Farooq Sattar, Bashir Bilour demanded of the concerned authorities to complete the probe into the heinour crime and bring the culprits to justice.

Later, talking to media men, the Minister thanked the people for cooperating with the government against terrorism.
