Pak right-wing politician shot dead by gunmen

A senior politician was today killed in an early morning shooting in Pakistan's southern Sindh province.
Khalid Mehmood Soomro, senior leader of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Fazl (JUI-F), was leaving a mosque in Sukkur after morning prayers when he was targeted by unknown gunmen.
JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman told media that Soomro was the victim of a terrorist attack.
"The government should order immediate action to arrest the attackers," Fazl said.
Soomro hailed from Larkana district of Sindh and was also the secretary general of the Sindh branch of the party.
He was a key leader and also elected as a senator from his party and served in the parliament from 2006-2012.

He is survived by his wife, six sons and three daughters.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif condemned the killing and asked the provincial government to arrest the culprits.
