Act of shame and disgrace. Both the groups must be ousted from the party for taking arms against each other. The murderers should be punished too after being caught by the authorities.

How embarrassing. Workers of JI killed a human being. I know there is no one in JI who would have the courage to say this was done by JI workers. What kind of society do they want to see in Pakistan?. I am ashamed to be a Pakistani and these people are making a mockery of our beautiful religion. I have never seen or heard of a more intolerant society anywhere in the world.
