“The friendship has never been empty talks, but deeply imprinted in hearts of Chinese and Pakistani people,” Zhao said.
The Chinese people have volunteered to make donations for families of the two Sindh policemen and the injured private security guard Mohammed Juman, who is currently under treatment at Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre (JPMC), Karachi.
Couple of days ago, the Sindh government had announced Rs 12.5 million compensation money for the families of each assassinated police official, who embraced martyrdom while foiling terrorist attack on the consulate.
