The second death anniversary of former Punjab governor Salman Taseer was observed on Friday.
Memorial services were held in different cities for the deceased.
Taseer was gunned down by his body guard, Mumtaz Qadri, two years ago in Islamabad for his statement regarding the blasphemy law.
He was 26th governor of Punjab and was appointed in General (r) Pervez Musharraf era.
His son, Shahbaz Taseer, was kidnapped on August 26, 2011 and has still not been recovered.
Taseer was remembered as a liberal politician.
SuleimanTaseer was a bold and liberal man. His contributions toward minorities are remarkable. May Allah put his soul in peace. He was a man of great attributes. My deep sympathies are for hole of his family.
