Dr Sarang Memon, a young physician working at a private hospital in Karachi (Pakistan's largest city), was killed late Monday night when gunmen travelling in a car intercepted his rickshaw on Dr Dawood Pota Road and opened fire. He sustained four gunshot wounds and died at the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre shortly after arrival; police say initial investigations point to personal enmity rather than robbery. The killing adds to a troubling pattern of violence against medical professionals in Pakistan, following similar attacks on doctors in Peshawar and Kohat in recent months.
