Yet another attack against Chinese nationals in Pakistan;  one shot dead, two injured in firing in Karachi 

KARACHI: An armed attacker posing as a dental patient killed a Chinese-Pakistani dual national and injured two others at a clinic in Karachi in Pakistan on Wednesday.

The police said that the dental clinic was run by one of the victims.

The victims, identified by police as Dr Richard Hu, Mrs Margrate Hu and Ronald, were all Chinese-Pakistani dual nationals.

According to the police, the incident was a targeted attack by a man in his early thirties.

The victims have been running the clinic in the area for a long period and did not face any apparent threats.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack.

Chinese nationals have been targeted by Baloch separatist militants in recent years, and their attacks have picked up pace recently - most notably an attack on Chinese teachers in Karachi University earlier this year.
