Azim sees RAW's hand in Raad's

murder

KARACHI: Sindh Governor Azim Daudpota has said that the Indian RAW had a hand in the killing of Iqbal Raad and two others.

He was talking to reporters after a seminar held at a local hotel here on Saturday in connection with the International Women's Day celebrations.

The governor termed the killing as a horrifying incident which, he added, could give a wrong impression as Iqbal Raad was a lawyer of Nawaz Sharif.

He said that no one in the country would kill Raad and that the RAW had a hand in this planned killing. The killers also ensured that Raad is dead, he added.

Daudpota said that efforts are underway to nab the killers but no (no) headway had been made as yet.

He said that security arrangements had also been beefed up and the law enforcement agencies had further been alerted. APP
