“It seems that the suicide attacker walked up to Sheikh’s vehicle and blew himself up outside the front passenger seat of the vehicle where Sheikh was seated,” said police officer Raja Umar Khattab.
A police van which was accompanying the targeted vehicle also suffered damage.
SSP Chauhdry Aslam said, “The police will divulge information with respect to the exact nature of the blast shortly.”
The explosion killed Sheikh along with his two security guards. At least 11 people were reportedly injured.
Six kilogrammes of explosives were used in the blast.

Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) official Twitter account said the security in-charge had also served President Asif Ali Zardari in jail.
Country's leadership has failed; Bullet proof cars should be taken from them to experience the lives of ordinary citizens
Thank god some one showing courage to end this criminal from earth next will be another chief
MQM or Military any one of them! they send warning notes to Zardari for some under hand games.This is way pawns are used and then disposed as per requirement of state actors.
MQM terrorism possible as today new minsters take oath and happening such terrorism seems like signal for sindh government.Sindh government also failed to maintain peace in Karachi .same old government in sindh which already failed to handle law and situation in past 5 years so how can they bring peace now?.Federal government involvement required to handle law and order situation.
After Benazir Bhuto PPP is made by Zardari & his cornies a party on crutches can not survive with out crutches.PPP in Benazir time PPP was the party of all four provinces,Present PPP is licking feet of MQM to join them ,which shows Zardari has completey destroyed PPP
