KARACHI: The Sindh government on Monday demanded to include Sheikh Rasheed into the inquiry of Maulana Adil Khan’s murder.

Speaking at a press conference here, Sindh Education Minister Saeed Ghani said that the incident of target killing occurred following a statement of Railways Minister Sheikh Rasheed. The federal minister had predicted that the cases of coronavirus and terrorism may take place due to the rallies of opposition. The target killing of Maulana Adil occurred after the Sheikh Rasheed’s statement, the PPP minister recalled, urging the authorities to include the federal  minister in the investigation.

However, Ghani admitted that the sufficient security was not provided to the late scholar. A Supreme Court’s 2018 verdict was an obstacle in providing security to Maulana Adil.
