QUETTA: Gunmen riding a motorcycle Monday shot dead a college principal and renowned educationist in Quetta, the capital of Pakistan's restive southwestern province of Baluchistan, police said.
Fazle Bari, principal of private boys' college Tameer-e-Nau, was killed in the drive-by shooting when he was travelling to work in his car, senior police official Tariq Manzoor told AFP.
“Bari died on the spot and his driver was wounded,” Manzoor said, linking the attack to a recent wave of unrest and “targeted killings.”
Some 250 students blocked a main road during a march towards the residence of the Baluchistan governor to protest against the killing, prompting police to fire tear gas to disperse the crowd, an AFP reporter said.
In Quetta and other parts of Balochistan, 18 people, including three police personnel, have been victims of target killings and bomb attacks over the past five days.
