Conspiracy behind Karachi unrest, Malik tells NA

Interior Minister Rehman Malik told the National Assembly on Wednesday that the deteriorating law and order situation in Karachi was the result of a well-planned conspiracy. He said that terrorists had planned to fan sectarianism through the target killing of Shia lawyers and Sipah-e-Sahaba, Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and Sunni Tehreek workers.

He also revealed that links between the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and Sipah-e-Sahaba had been uncovered in carrying out joint terrorist activities, adding that incidents of target killing had decreased since the arrest of some members of both outfits.
