Driver of Jamia Millia college burried
MUZAFFARABAD, May 7: A large number of people here attended the funeral prayers for the driver, who was killed on Monday along with the principle and peon of Jamia Millia Polytechnic Institute, in an act of target-shooting in Karachi.
He belonged to Ghatun village, some 35 kilometres southeast of the Azad Jammu and Kashmir capital.
Mir Zaman, 49, son of Suleman, was serving in the polytechnic institute of Malir for the past 14 years, and had no enmity with anyone or involvement in any kind of political or sectarian activities, his uncle and PTV’s senior news producer Mohammad Ayub Minhas told reporters here.
The body was flown to Islamabad from Karachi in the wee hours of Tuesday, from where it was taken to his ancestral village in an Edhi ambulance for burial.
People attending the funeral condemned the brutal killings in the attack, and demanded of the Sindh government to compensate the bereaved family.
