On Thursday, a Karachi-based eye surgeon named Dr Birbal Genani was shot dead by unidentified gunmen near Layari in Karachi while returning home from his clinic.
According to the police, Dr Birbal Genani and his assistant lady doctor were travelling to Gulshan-e-Iqbal from Ramswamy when unidentified men targeted their car near Garden interchange on the Lyari Expressway. Dr Genani died on the spot while his assistant lady doctor sustained bullet injuries.
The action was taken when a video went viral showing Station House Officer (SHO) Kabil Bhayo of the Khanpur police station in the Ghotki district going around with a stick in hand and hitting some shoppers, including Hindu men who were reportedly preparing biryani for delivery to customers.
