KARACHI – The police claims that the arrested terrorists of Safoora incident have admitted of being involved in Sabeen Mahmood murder as well.
Sabeen was gunned down by unknown assailants in Karachi on Friday as she made her way home after hosting a seminar about human rights abuses in Balochistan, police had said.
Mahmud, who ran ‘The Second Floor’, a cafe that organizes debates and art events, had just left the venue with her mother when her car was attacked by gunmen in Karachi’s Defence neighbourhood.
Mahmud was hit by five bullets and died at the scene, police said. Her mother was critically injured and was shifted to a hospital where her condition is now reported to be out of danger.
In accordance with her mother’s wishes, her funeral was to be held at T2F, a place which was her labour of love.
Shortly before her brutal killing, Mahmud had hosted a seminar about rights abuses in restive Balochistan titled “Un-silencing Balochistan Take 2”, featuring two prominent Baloch rights activists, Mama Abdul Qadeer and Farzana Baloch, among other speakers.
