Another Ahmadi man falls victim to the continuous murderous campaign of target killings of Ahmadis in Pakistan.

The latest victim, Maqsood Ahamd, was a trader and a prominent member of the Ahmadiyya community of Quetta in Baluchistan province of Pakistan, it was reported.

Around 9:00 AM (PST) on Friday, Dec. 7, two gunmen riding motorcycles sprayed Maqsood Ahamd with bullets when he was returning home after dropping off his children at their schools.

According to the details released by the Ahmadiyya community in Pakistan, Ahmad was struck with 4 bullets to his forehead and died before reaching a hospital.

Ahmad was 31 years old and leaves behind a wife, two children and elderly parents.

The press release issued by Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyya Pakiatn revealed that Ahmad was the younger brother of Manzoor Ahmad who was target-killed in Quetta less than a month ago.

Mr. Salimud Din, the Ahmadiyya spokesperson in Pakistan, condemned the killing and said that the continuous killing campaign is spreading undeterred in many parts of the country.

The killing of two men from the same family, Salimud Din says, is indicative of clear planning to kill Ahmadis.
