A video showed the passenger van entering the Confucius Institute at 2:08 pm and Shari Baloch was exactly present at the same spot and looked in the vehicle, however, she did not detonate the explosive as the institute’s director was not present there.

On April 26, she departed from Dehli Colony’s flat and entered Karachi University from the Silver Jubilee gate in a rickshaw. The camera spotted a suspicious white-coloured vehicle moving before the rickshaw.

She then came out of the rickshaw and met the ‘last-minute handler lady’ and also handed over a mobile phone to her. Investigators thought that the mobile phone was specifically given to Shari for getting the information regarding the suicide attack.
