Court to hear evidence in Zahra Shahid murder case on Feb 9

An anti-terrorism court on Friday fixed February 9 to record evidence in the murder case of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Zahra Shahid. The slain woman’s driver and family members will record their statements at the next hearing. The court has also heard the evidence submitted by a magistrate who had conducted the identification parade of the detained accused. The suspected killers termed to be activists of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement were produced before the court of a judicial magistrate (South) that had held the identification parade in May 2015 where the witnesses had identified them. Shahid was killed in May 2013 by some gunmen outside her residence in Karachi's DHA Phase-IV.
