Weapons seized at 'Nine Zero' to undergo forensic test

According to police sources, all weapons seized during Rangers raid at ‘Nine Zero’ will go through forensic tests to broaden the scope of investigation.

Forensic experts will submit their report about the weapons, added the source.

In a report submitted by Rangers to the Interior Ministry, it stated that personnel seized 130 modern weapons during the raid, including foreign-made arms.

The raid on the MQM headquarters, known as “Nine-Zero”, sparked an angry response from the party, with city going into lockdown mode over protest.

At least one supporter of the MQM, the fourth-largest party in parliament, died as government paramilitary Rangers opened fire on protesting activists.

Rangers personnel raided the offices in central Karachi acting on an intelligence tip-off that convicted criminals were hiding inside.
