ISLAMABAD: Unidentified gunmen on Monday shot dead a senior Pakistani official at the country’s consulate in Afghanistan’s eastern Jalalabad city, Pakistan embassy sources in Kabul said.
Two gunmen riding a motorcycle sprayed bullets at Nayyar Iqbal Rana, Assistant Private Secretary at the Pakistani consulate, outside his residence, the source said by the phone.
The gunmen fled after the incident. No group claimed responsibility.
Giving details of the incident, an embassy official said by the phone that slain Rana came under attack at 6:15 p.m. local time when he reached home from the consulate. He received two bullets, he said.
“There had been serious threats to Pakistani embassy and consulate officials in Afghanistan and we had taken up the issue with the Afghan authorities. We had called for security of our staffers in Kabul and consulates,” he said.
The consulate general and other officials shifted the body to a local hospital for autopsy, the official said.
“We have asked for autopsy as soon as possible to shift the body to Pakistan,” he said.
