Gunmen kill two Shias in Quetta

QUETTA: Gunmen on a motorbike Monday killed two Shia Muslims in an apparent sectarian attack in Quetta, police said.
The victims were shot in their car on Kirani road, on the outskirts of Quetta which is in the grip of a tribal insurgency and violence linked to Taliban militants.
‘Two men from the Shiite community were shot dead by unknown gunmen who were on a motorbike,’ police official Shah Jahan told AFP.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the killings.
The attack came a week after five Shias were killed in another drive-by shooting in Quetta, which has a history of sectarian attacks involving Sunni and Shia Muslim extremists.
