Pakistan - Bilawal Bhutto condemns Hazara killing

Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has strongly condemned the barbaric killings of five Hazara community people in Quetta at the hands of terrorists yesterday.

Such coward attacks are in fact a direct threat to the integrity of the nation and very fabric of our society, Bhutto said in a press statement. 

“Terrorists are plotting to create a situation where all Pakistanis start fighting against each other but this nation has both the blood and spirits of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto to foil the conspiracies and uphold integrity and peace,” he said.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari joined the grief of the families of the Quetta victims and prayed to Almighty Allah to rest the departed souls in eternal peace and grant courage and fortitude to their family members to bear this painful loss.

Five Hazara men, including a father and a son, were killed in a drive-by shooting in Qeutta yesterday. 

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, PTI leader Imran Khan, MQM head Altaf Hussain and others condemned the gun attack.
