HYDERABAD OCT 26 (TNS): The murder of Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) member Dr Noshad was motivated by personal enmity, not political gains, police have claimed.

Dr Noshad was shot dead in a targeted attack in Hyderabad on Wednesday. The attackers, riding a motorcycle, shot at his vehicle near Rasheed Bhayya Park within the limits of Gulshan Halinagar Police Station.

Both the attackers remain at large. However, police have identified one of the attackers as Shahid ‘Dancer’.

Police officials said the murder appears to have been a result of personal enmity and not motivated by political gains.

Meanwhile, MQM-P chief Dr Farooq Sattar termed the murder as “open terrorism” and urged that the culprits be held accountable.
