KARACHI: A senior police officer and a member of the Ahmadiyya community were killed and traffic police officer escaped gun attack in separate but near-identical drive-by shootings in the metropolis on Sunday night. All three incidents took place in quick succession and in close proximity of each other.

In the first report, gunmen riding a motorbike sprayed bullets on a police vehicle near Laal Flat on Rashid Minhas Road, killing DSP Faiz Ali Shigri and injuring Head Constable Rasheed, according to Gulshan SP Dr Fahd.

Similarly, gunmen riding motorcycles opened fire on DSP of traffic police, Zafar Hussain, while he was sitting on his vehicle. Attackers fled after DSP Hussain retaliated.

Elsewhere in the city, a man belonging to the Ahmadiyya community was gunned outside his house in Kaneez Fatima Society where a neighbour said that four gunmen riding on motorcycles targeted Sheikh Sajid Mehboob, 55, outside his house in a gated society.

A source told The Express Tribune that the same team of target killers might have been involved in the three incidents.
