Renowned TV anchor and journalist Hamid Mir is now in a stable condition after being wounded in an attack on Saturday in Karachi, doctors have said.

Mir was on his way to his office in his car when he was attacked by unidentified gunmen near Shahrah-e-Faisal.

According to sources, the attackers were on a car as well as on a motorcycle and followed Mir for quite a long time.

He sustained injuries and was rushed to a hospital and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).
