Provincial Minister Zubair Ahmad Khan escaped a murder attempt when unidentified men fired shots at him outside his residence in Hyderabad on Monday.

Interior Minister Rehman Malik called the provincial minister and assured him of action against the attackers.

The interior minister also formed an inquiry comprising the DG Rangers and Hyderabad RPO to investigate the incident.
