Pakistan Green Party activist, Mr Shahnawaz Panhwer, was killed by unknown people at Dadu, Sindh province on 28 April 2013. The assassination followed threats by representatives of the outgoing government, and demands that the Greens candidate of Dadu PS-73, Mr. Imtiaz Ali Panhwer, withdraw from the forthcoming national elections. The Global Greens strongly condemn this murder and call upon the Pakistani authorities to begin an immediate investigation into the crime and publish their findings. The Global Greens give our deepest sympathy to Mr Panhwer’s family, friends and colleagues.
