QUETTA, Mar 22 (AFP) : Gunmen Monday assassinated a renowned Pakistani educationist in Baluchistan, where violence has recently spiked in the southwest region on the Afghan and Iranian borders, police said.
Fazle Bari, principal of private boys' college Tameer-e-Nau, was killed in the drive-by shooting as he travelled to work in his car through the Baluchistan capital Quetta, senior police official Tariq Manzoor said.
"Bari died on the spot and his driver was wounded," Manzoor said, linking the attack to a recent wave of unrest and 'targeted killings'.
