ISF member Dilawar Ali Awan was shot in the chest thrice by unknown armed men on Zamzama Street within the Clifton police area.
ISF Sindh President Alamgir Khan confirmed that Awan was an ISF member and said that his party has announced a day of mourning for his death.
However, the police stated that the victim was not affiliated with any political party or student organisation and was killed in a personal brawl.
“He was neither a member of any party nor he was killed in a targeted assassination,” SHO Asif Ali Jakharani told The Express Tribune.
“Before claiming his affiliation with the party, the PTI or ISF should have at least confirmed the nature of the incident,” Jakharani said. “I don’t think any party will claim someone who is killed over a call girl as its member.”

@Gone with the wind:
Who are "us" here...Don’t tell me that you are calling yourself a proud Mohajir as well.... you can’t live in ignorance forever! You can’t be proud of something you aren't! If you are not a doctor you just can’t say that you are proud to be a doctor! Is that what you are going to teach your kids this aswell "My son! you are a mohajir (mohajir by birth??)!" Open your eyes and see on your ID card which says that you are a PAKISTANI now.

Please read the last sentence of this artical. Like leader like followers, they will change Pakistan from its base? I wish for myself and wish the same to innocent young nice people's of Pakistan to ride on the correct train to reach right station. not a big wish. God bless us all.
And If Answer Is No, Then PTI Should Not Think That Karachi Peoples Will Become Affraid of PTI Then, They will Not!
Mahajirs Are One Who Make Pakistan And Gave Their Blood For Pakistan and Due To This Reason As Punjabis are Punjabis First The Correct Is Mahajirs Are Mahajirs And They Are Rightly Says Them Mahajirs. I ask Open Question To PTI "I don't have any problem with PTI or Associated Any Party, I'm Just A Professional, My Question is Will PTI Support Mahajir Province and Mahajir Sooba Tehreek? If PTI Answer is Yes, I can Guarantee PTI A Win From Karachi? Who I'm Its Not Important For You To Know Rightnow!
Isf zindabad we love u
My sincere condolonces to the family and friends of Dilawar PTI stop playing politics on dead people you are following in the footsteps of traditional political parties>>..................<<and please atleast see the background of murder he was killed in a call girl dispute and I think PTI should not put up their stall in every case...........
This is the reality of PTI. Don't forget the weapons PTI carried in Karachi rally of PTI
Threats, abduction, torture, killings can't stop the tsunami of change infact its a failed tactic to threaten ISF tigers. No matter how SHO Jakhrani manipulate the incident by co-relating a loss of life to alleged involvement in unliked activity. I would like to remind him article 09 of the constitution of islamic republic of Pakistan that Says: NO 1 SHALL BE DEPRIVED OF LIFE OR LIBERTY SAVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH LAW. But hatts off to his efficiency within hours he concluded the matter and declare the victim characterless, solved the issue.. all what he needs to close the file. If blood is all it needs to bring a revolution of change for the betterment of Pakistan, then every ISF tiger is ready to shed blood for Pakistan. ISF has power of Ink and blood. we don't need guns and goons. Salute to all brave tigers who surely are not going to back down or step back in this crucial time. PAKISTAN ZINDABAAD. FARAH IQBAL LODHI. ISF, KHI.
Regardless of the fact weather he was a member of isf or not what business does the sho has making political statements
@Ricky Nastan:
They used to call themselves Mahajirs but not Pakistani! The day MQM workers will start calling themselves Pakistani... they will get the same respect as other Pakistani. WE ARE ONLY PAKISTANI! LONG LIVE PAKISTAN.
And For PTI supporter Read This Real Newspaper News http://ummat.com.pk/story/2012/07/13/10946/
In contrast to the Police statement, if the PTI`s worker was not killed in a personal brawl, then PTI will be in a position to understand how the Police has been misguiding the general public over the "target killings" in Karachi. When the people and the agencies who prime responsibility is to maintain law & order are themselves distorting the facts, then how can they be sincere in bringing peace here? So, now PTI leadership will have been aware of the reality of the persistent "target killings" in the city.
PTI is running Prostitution and Call Girl Activities in Karachi and Pakistan. It is a moment of Shame for PTI. Wake up Pakistan How PTI Will bring Pakistan To Its Deserved Place When PTI is Involved in Such Activites.
So the root cause from the recent statement of Imran Khan seems to be that the poor guy was pushing for aggressive PTI membership campaign in his area. Of course, to the powers that be, that came across as a threat to their constituency.
RIP....for those who are taking this opportunity to take cheap shots at PTI...I don't think this news warrants such a heartless response. We may all disagree with anyone's political position, but loss of a human life is a matter of tragedy that all should agree upon.
Have to say this story smacks of bias.
So he was shot because of a dispute over money with a call girl and he was a PTI Student leader!! WOW, Imran is training his "Tigers" very well!
PTI officials running ‘Call-girl business’ in Karachi? such a shame.
Previously, PTI had been terming all the killings as the result of the clashes among different political parties and, in its support, it had also been quoting the statements issued from the Police. But, now what a change we are seeing in its stand???
Very sad incident and great loss for PTI and family of this young man. God bless him and his family.
know lets see how imran's tusaunami stay in the sea of blood of karachi!
police is at payroll they can not speak truth dilwar u will be remembered
Like always Pathetic Reporting by ET. No news about Umair Khan who was kidnapped on the same day?
How shameful and disgraceful of the SHO Jakharni to say that he got killed over a call girl, clearly a sign of dirty politics. Whatever the issue maybe, the fact is that he is supposed to provide security to people of Karachi, and he failed miserably.
May Allah bless this kid's soul. PTI zindabad !!
@Muhamamd Imran: In that case, PTI must sue the SHO Asif Ali Jakharani, who is claiming that the Gen.Sec of DHA ISF was killed over a call girl! If it is true, is it the kind of leadership that would make Pakistan an Islamic Welfare State?
PTI officials running 'Call-girl business' in Karachi? such a shame.
May Allah bless our brother and rest in peace
Shame on the gangsters of MQM, PPP and ANP...
May Allah bless his soul..
RIP
RIP!
May Allah bless u
Pathetic statement from SHO, Dilawar Ali Awan was the Gen.Sec of DHA ISF and was very active in ISF. Today ISF Karachi ex-Gen.Sec was also kidnapped, beaten and robbed from Gulberg Town! Lots of EYE WITNESS was there.
Okay. Now I believe PTI is a real player.
so what about the isf member who was kidnapped beaten............ these police are all held hostage by the political mafia..shame on all of them,, be the power with isf and pti May ALLAH give them the strength to overcome all the difficulties they face
Welcome to the dirty politics of Karachi. RIP
