An Ahmadi man is gunned down in Lahore's Green Town area, it is reported in the social media.
According to a twitter post by a relative of the reported victim, Mr. Javed Karim was shot at a close range at his residence's front door.
Victim Javed Karim had just answered a knock at his front door when unknown gunmen waiting on motorcycle(s) pumped him with 4 bullets.
The killers immediately sped away on their motorcycle(s).
'I don't have full details, but it's confirmed; Javed Sahib son of Kareem Dehlvi Sahib has been killed by two men on motorcycle,' wrote Malik Omaid ‏responding to an inquiry.
The victim was in his thirties, however the details of the incident are still sketchy and more information will likely surface in coming hours and days, it is said.
Since the new government lead by Mr Nawaz Sharif of PML-N has taken over, observers say, there again has been a marked increase in attacks on Ahmadis in Pakistan.
At least six attacks have been reported on Ahmadis in Pakistan during the past 10 days resulting in multiple fatalities and life-threatening injuries.
During the PML-N's previous stint as leaders of the Punjab provincial government, the party's close association with banned terrorists groups such as Tehrik Taliban Pakistan, Lasjakar-e Jhangvi and Jamat-ud-Dawa was openly decried by many human rights groups.
After the May 2010 attacks on two Ahmadi prayer centers in Lahore which had left 86 dead and hundreds injured, the suicide attackers' room and board at Raiwind -- Shaeef brothers home town and the center for an Islamist group, Tablighi Jama'at - had surfaced in various investigations.
