KARACHI: Eight suspected terrorists were killed in an operation in the Raes Goth area of Karachi after midnight on Saturday, according to the Rangers.

A spokesperson for the paramilitary force said the operation was jointly conducted by the Rangers and Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) of the Sindh Police.

The Rangers and CTD surrounded a hideout of terrorists in Raes Goth and asked the terrorists holed up inside to turn themselves in, but they opened fire on the law enforcers. The Rangers called in reinforcement before storming the compound.


“Five terrorists were killed and three critically injured in the firefight,” the Rangers spokesperson said. “The injured terrorists, who were taken into custody, died en route to hospital,” he added.

He added that a huge cache of arms and ammunition was also recovered from the hideout.

The spokesperson further said that some terrorists have fled under the cover of fire and a manhunt has been launched in the vicinity to apprehend them.

No. They were the Ansar Sharia people caught some months ago. Police/Rangers even did a press conference saying they arrested the ansar sharia head (shehryar aka dr abdullah).. Yesterday they killed him in an 'encounter'.

Although I have no love for the terrorists, I still think extra judicial killings is NOT the solution. Its a mockery of the law. This way law will never get strengthened. We need to strengthen our courts, police, forensics, prosecution etc. Law makers breaking the law is never good

even though i'm against the extra judicial killing, but we cannot ensure justice when there is corruption from 1 grade to 22 grade..

Someone has to gone over law to bring people back into the parameters of law and justice..
