On August 1, 2025, senior lawyer Advocate Khawaja Shamsul Islam was fatally shot near a mosque in Defence Housing Authority (DHA) Phase 6, Karachi, as confirmed by the Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of South.

Khawaja Shamsul Islam’s son, who was also injured in the attack, was quickly rushed to a private hospital for treatment. Both victims were initially in critical condition, but Khawaja Shamsul Islam ultimately succumbed to his injuries, while his son continues to receive medical care.

In November 2024, he was attacked in the Clifton area of Karachi after offering prayers at Masjid Noorul Islam.

According to Azam Rajpar, the Station House Officer (SHO) at Clifton police, a group of 15 to 20 unidentified men assaulted him with iron rods and shot him, causing injuries to his hand and ear. He received treatment at South City Hospital, and the police attributed the attack to a “personal dispute.”

Police are investigating a recent shooting, but there are no immediate details regarding the motive or the perpetrators. The repeated violence against Khawaja Shamsul Islam raises concerns about targeted attacks on prominent figures in Karachi. This incident has led to calls for improved security measures in the city.

The killing of a senior lawyer highlights ongoing safety challenges in Karachi, particularly in high-profile areas like DHA. It underscores the need for thorough investigations to ensure justice and public safety. For accurate updates on crime in Pakistan, rely on trusted sources to avoid misinformation.
