According to sources, some unidentified men, aged between 40-45 years came inside the college and opened fire. IJT students chased them but they managed to flee the scene.
In the process, a bullet hit one of the IJT students, Atif, near his ribcage.
After sometime, when police came to the college, angered IJT students hurled stones at the police mobile, protesting against the firing incident.
In retaliation, policemen opened fire at them in which IJT’s Muhammad Arif died on the spot.
Sources in IJT allege that the All Pakistan Muttahida Students Organisation (APMSO) might be behind the incident as a few days back the IJT had requested college administration to take off APMSO’s flags from the college entrance.
However, the APMSO only operates in the college during the evening shift, which is why it could not be ascertained who was responsible for the incident.
The body of the deceased was moved to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital for an autopsy, while Atif is currently undergoing an operation in the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, where doctors say his condition is critical.

@Salman Orangiwala: btw who said in eighties, sell books buy guns ???
@ Karachiite , Maybe you are well aware the phrase "Jamati ..." is considered synonamous to what in Karachi .Yet you are defending IJT who introduced Kalashnikov vide Thunder Squads in the late eighties .
@Tariq Jameel: IJT not but MQM or AMPSO, all parties including ( ANP, MQM-H, PPP, PAC, JI, IJT, PPI, PSA, PSF ) points to MQM.
I also ask one thing why IJT is involved in every clashes of different parts of Pakistan in Lahore in Peshawer in Queeta
Remember some time IJT used such type of killing tool for keep them innocent in area politics. They kill innocent students from college and framed other political party on such crime. In North Nazimabad Mr Irfan Sindhu is there killer who performed such activities in 90's some action taken by IJT in various colleges or in university.
Wonder why in every clash, IJT is the common factor
APMSO also says they are not the wing of MQM
Jamiat is a separate entity not a student wing of any party please keep in mind for future.
IJT is not the student wing of JI ........... ONCE AGAIN
they do violence in assembly, they do in colleges & universities, they spread hates. Why everyone point them for the violence?? God give them Hidayat.
