QUETTA: Unidentified gunmen yesterday killed five people in Pakistan’s troubled southwest in an apparently ethnically motivated attack, police said.
The incident took place late yesterday in a market in the central part of Quetta, the main town in the southwestern province of Baluchistan.
Senior police official Aitzaz Goraya said that two gunmen on a motorbike opened fire on two shops in the market, killing four shopkeepers on the spot and critically wounding three. One among the injured later succumbed to his injuries in hospital. AFP
