Majlis e Ulama Shia Europe, who is the representative of Shia Muslims in UK & Europe, condemns the targeted assassination of Allama Nasir Abbas of Multan Pakistan. Allama Nasir Abbas was going to his residence after reciting a Majlis at Qaumi Markaz, Shah Jamal at around 11 pm when armed motorcycles intercepted his vehicle near FC College Underpass and opened fire. The government of Pakistan is failing to protect Shias in the country and the sectarian targeted killings in the country are increasing day by day. Majlis e Ulama Shia Europe demands that the Pakistani government and judiciary to capture the attackers immediately and bring them to justice. We believe, if the Pakistani government does not act to stop these extremist elements and terrorist attacks then the country will fall apart & the government will be responsible for the consequences. Syed Ali Raza Rizvi President of M.U.S
