Unidentified armed men opened fire on Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s (MQM) Member of Provincial Assembly (MPA) Saifuddin Khalid earlier today.
The MPA narrowly escaped the attack after unidentified men fired four shots at his car. Police say six armed men riding three motorbikes tried to ambush Saifuddin when he was travelling in his car in Sector 11 of Karachi.
Earlier on August 18, MQM leader and Member National Assembly (MNA) Rashid Godil was critically injured as his car had come under attack in the Bahadurabad area of Karachi.
Four unidentified assailants on motorcycles opened fire on Godil’s car when he was on his way to party headquarters, Nine Zero, for a meeting with JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rahman. He suffered six bullets to his head, jaw and chest.
