Ameer Hassan, a minority Ahmadi farm worker in Sindh, Pakistan, was shot dead allegedly for his faith. Witness statements suggest religious extremism as the motive. This tragic event adds to a series of faith-based attacks this year. The community demands governmental action against hate-fueled violence.

A farm worker from the minority Ahmadi community was reportedly shot dead for his faith in Sindh, Pakistan, police have stated.

Ameer Hassan, aged 40, was attacked by two unidentified assailants while returning home after morning prayers in the Fazl Bhambro area of Mirpurkhas. He died from his injuries at a local hospital.
