SP Investigation Faizullah Junejo said the suspect had confessed his involvement in Ms Shahid’s murder. The deceased was Vice-President of PTI’s Sindh chapter.
The SP investigation said probe of the case was underway. He said further probe would be conducted after remand of the accused by court.
Police sources said they had nabbed three suspects in connection to PTI leader’s murder.
The PTI leader was killed late on the night of May 18, 2013 in an attempted robbery incident on the eve of re-polls in Karachi’s NA-250 constituency.
According to law enforcers’ account, three motorcyclists had tried to snatch Ms Shahid’s handbag and opened fire upon resistance by the PTI leader outside her residence in the city’s Defence Housing Authority Phase-IV.
