  • Sindh CM says gang was allegedly led by an engineering student named Saad Aziz
  • Says suspected terrorists were also involved in attacking police mobiles

Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah on Wednesday announced the arrest of suspected terrorists who had allegedly carried out the Safoora Goth massacre and the assassination of rights activist Sabeen Mahmud in Karachi in the recent days.

The revelation comes just a day after the chief minister announced the arrest of the masterminds of the Safoora Goth tragedy in which at least 37 Ismaili Shias were brutally gunned down in a bus by unidentified men.

Speaking to reporters, the CM lauded the efforts of the Sindh police saying they had unearthed a dangerous nexus of terrorists involved in various terror activities in the city.

Shah said security agencies have arrested the alleged mastermind of Sabeen Maumud’s murder, named Saad Aziz, adding that the suspect is an engineering student from a reputable university. He said that Saad’s accomplices had confessed to the rights activist’s murder during interrogation of the Safoora Goth case. He added that the same group was involved in the attack on American Professor Debra Lobo.

He said that the arrested suspects were experts in preaching terrorism, brainwashing their audience and provide them training to carry out terrorist activities. The arrested suspects have also admitted to carrying out attacks on police mobiles in Arambagh, MA Jinnah Road, Gulistan-e-Johar, North Nazimabad, North Karachi, Shah Faisal Colony and Landhi, he claimed.

Weapons were also recovered from the possession of alleged terrorists, which included three AK-47s, seven 9mm pistols, five grenades and a considerable quantity of explosive materials —laptops and terrorism related literature was also recovered.

  1. The arrested man also confessed about killing Qaim Shah ZA Bhutto, ZiaulHaq and Robert Kennedy.

  2. wow…these men maybe also involed in all the killings that occured in pakistan over a few decades back. Sindh’s CM just saved pakistan , he should be given The Noble Peace prize

  3. Suddenly Qaim Ali Shah and his police comes along with "jadoo ki chhadi" and are suddenly performing miracles. As Zardari declared everything is under control in Karachi and Sindh telling "no need" for the army to be showing undue concern

  4. Hogwash. We know Baloch have been the target of army for over forty years. Army is not ready to give them their due rights but gag their voice and suppress with force.
