Police in Karachi on Thursday night claimed to have killed two suspected militants linked with the militant Islamic State (IS).
The suspected militants were allegedly involved in the killing of a senior police official last year in the metropolis.
“Intelligence agencies provided us information that some militants belonging to IS were present in the Ghazi Goth area of Manghopir,” said Karachi-West SSP Nasir Aftab.
Police officials said the suspected militants opened fire on the police raiding party after their hideout was surrounded and injured a constable. They added that two suspects were killed while others managed to escape.
“The killed militants were involved in the killing of DSP Faiz Ali Shigri,” said Aftab.
Police claimed to have seized a laptop, two hand grenades and other weapons from the suspected militants.
