KARACHI: Unidentified gunmen have killed Dawood Ahmad, an Ahmadi, due to religious hatred.

According to details, Dawood was waiting for his friend outside his house when two unidentified men on a motorbike opened fire at him. The assailants also fired shots at Dawood’s friend who had already reached there as he hurried to help him. The both victim were rushed to the hospital, but Dawood succumbed to injuries whereas his friend is in stable condition.

Jamaat Ahmadiyya spokesman Saleemuddin strongly condemned the incident and expressed deep grief. He said, “Mischievous and baseless propaganda is going on all over the country against Ahmadis; this is the basic reason of such grievous incidents. It was announced in the National Action plan that action would be taken against hate promoters but it is sad to say that elements who promote hate against Ahmadis are not only free but are busy spreading hateful propaganda openly without any fear.”

However, the attackers managed to escape from the scene. The police have started investigation after filing a case.
