2010 Karachi riots
The 2010 Karachi riots started on August 3, 2010, after the assassination of MP Raza Haider, a member of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement political party, on the night of August 2, 2010, in Karachi, Pakistan. The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) represents the Urdu-speaking Muhajir and is a political rival of the Pashtuns who have migrated to the city from northwest Pakistan. Haider, a Shia Muslim, was killed as he attended a funeral at a mosque.〔
By August 6 at least 100 Pashtuns were killed and more than 200 people injured in widespread violence that engulfed the city. Economic losses over two days of riots were estimated to be about Pakistani rupees (Approx. 200 million USD).
==Background==
Karachi has a history of political bloodshed stretching back to the late 1980s when the city was regularly rocked by political and ethnic shootings that killed dozens every week. Analysts say the city is again in the grip of a political turf war.
Karachi, which is provincial Capital of Sindh and Pakistan's commercial capital and largest city, has a population of and contributes about 70% of the country's tax income.〔 The city has seen a wave of political killings in 2010 which have deepened ethnic tensions.
