ISLAMABAD, Oct 3: The Tehrik Nafaz-i-Fiqah Jafariya (TNFJ) has condemned the killing of seven people in a firing incident in Karachi on Friday.

The TNFJ, in a statement, expressed shock on this incident and termed it an open act of terrorism and a challenge for the government.

The statement said terrorism was escalating because the government and opposition had set banned groups as their hangers- on.

The TNFJ demanded that the government should implement the anti-terrorism ordinance and deal the terrorists with iron hand.—Our Reporter
