KARACHI-
At least four people were killed and 15 others were injured in a bombing in Karachi on Thursday.
According to police officials, the bombing targeted a local police officer Shafiq Tanoli, killing him and three others in an old vegetable market in eastern part of the metropolitan.
15 others, including three guards of Tanoli were reported injured.
The areas was cordoned off and an investigation was launched to ascertain the exact nature of the attack.
Another brave police office lays down his life in the line of duty. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the families of police inspector Shafiq Tanoli and his three comrades who lost their lives in the terrorist suicide attack today. What better way to demoralize the front line of security staff than by targeting their senior officers? The message to the coward terrorists is that you may kill a few brave souls but you will not kill our resolve for peace and a violence free region. Many brave officers have died protecting the citizens of Pakistan; we salute them and stand by them today as they tackle this vicious and common enemy. There is no denying that the path towards sustained peace is treacherous but rest assured that together we will reach our destining of peace and harmony.
Abdul Quddus.
