KARACHI: A Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) leader was killed in an armed attack near Sakhi Hassan Chowrangi on Monday, ARY News reported.

According to the police, unidentified assailants riding a motorcycle opened fire at the car of PSP leader Abdul Habib, critically wounding him.

He was moved to a nearby medical facility where doctors pronounced him to be dead.

Condemning the incident, PSP chief Syed Mustafa Kamal demanded the provincial government to ensure the swift arrest of the culprits and their facilitators involved in the murder of his party leader.
