“It’s not confirmed yet. We are in touch with the police authorities and other departments in Balochistan to confirm the report about his killing,” said SP City Shiraz Nazeer. “Meanwhile, we have strengthened security in the sensitive area of Lyari.
“Our message is loud and clear: zero tolerance for any violence.
If criminals try to create a law and order situation on the pretext of mourning or protest, police will move into Lyari,” the SP said.
