PakAlumni Member and NEDian Idrees Shah Loses his Cousin to Violence in Karachi

NEDian Idrees Shah has lost his cousin Mohammad Ibrahim in a targeted killing in Karachi. Mohammad Ibrahim was an intelligence agent involved in tracking al-Qaeda suspects was shot dead along with his deputy Fazlur Rahman in the southern port city of Karachi, police say.

Both were employees of Pakistan's main civilian spy agency.
The men were attacked late on Thursday at a car showroom in a commercial area.
"They were involved in the arrests of many of the terror network's operatives in the past two months," a Pakistani official was quoted as saying.

The men were employed by the Intelligence Bureau, the only one of Pakistan's three spy agencies that is controlled by the civilian interior ministry, rather than by the military.

May Allah rest Mohamad Ibrahim's soul in peace and give his relatives the strength to bear this great loss. Amen.
