KARACHI: PPP activists demand killers' arrest
By Our Reporter
KARACHI, June 26: The protesting activists of the Pakistan Peoples Party on Saturday asked President Pervez Musharraf and the Sindh chief minister, Arbab Rahim as to why had the killers of Munawwar Suhrawardy not been apprehended yet.
They said this at the protest camp set up by the PPP minority wing outside the Karachi Press Club.
The protesters chanted slogans against the government and killers, all day long, and vowed to continue their struggle if the government failed to take appropriate action against the culprits.
City chief of the PPP Haji Muzaffar Shujra declared that if assassins of Mr Suhrawardy were not arrested by July 2, the party would carry forward with its peaceful struggle in a different manner.
Habibuddin Junedi said the murder of Suhrawardy was an attack on those who believe in national thinking and approach. D Mahesh Malani, provincial president, PPP's minority wing demanded arrest of the killers of Abdullah Murad and Mr Suhrawardy.
Anwar Laldin criticised "apathy" of the government in this regard.
