A very very sad attack, killing someone by bargain into the house point blank?

Deplorable. Especially the following part really saddened me.

It is pertinent to mention that her husband Hanif Jadoon, who also was an ANP leader, was killed along with his son and guard in a suicide bomb attack in July 2011.

So effectively, whole family killed.
Hope the culprits get arrested and hanged.

Likewise, its really unfortunate to see that people won't even find safety within their own homes!
ANP doesn't have much of a say these days, why are there people still going after them?
