Saleemud Din, the national spokesman of Jamaat Ahmadiyya Pakistan strongly condemned the murder of Dawood Ahmad, a 55-year-old respectable Ahmadi member who was shot dead in Gulzar Hijri area of Karachi Tuesday evening by unidentified assailants.

Saleemud Din said in a statement issued by his office in Rabwah, Pakistan, that the 'distressing incident' took place due to 'religious hatred' and he expressed deep grief, adding that "thirty Ahmadis have been killed in Karachi and not a single murderer has been brought to justice till now."

"Consequently extremist elements feel encouraged,” he said.

Saleemud Din further said, “Mischievous and baseless propaganda is going on all over the country against Ahmadis; this is the basic reason of such grievous incidents. It was announced in the National Action plan that action would be taken against hate promoters but it is sad to say that elements who promote hate against Ahmadis are not only free but are busy spreading hateful propaganda openly without any fear."

Saleemud Din demanded of the administration that Dawood’s killers be arrested immediately and brought to justice.
