By Our Reporter
KARACHI, Aug 30: The Ittehadul Momineen Sadat-i-Jarcha Trust, which manages Masjid-o-Bargah Imam Ali Raza, has filed a case against the government claiming Rs9.1 million in compensation for the damages caused in the bomb blast.
Addressing a news conference at the Karachi Press Club on Monday, the general-secretary of the Trust, Syed Shuja Abbas Rizvi Jarchvi, said that the case had been filed in the Sindh High Court as the government allegedly did not fulfil its commitment and paid no attention to the legal notice sent by the Trust.
He said that the bomb blast not only damaged the mosque but also resulted in killing 26 people and wounding 100 others. He slated the government and politicians for capitalizing on the tragedy for their own projection.
