The report said that the Railway administration had also not made any
concerted effort to preserve clues of the incident.

In particular, the Committee criticised the onward travel to Ahmedabad
of S-7 coach despite some damage to it and despite it being a crucial
piece of evidence.

"In fact, the damaged portion of S-7 has been disposed of as scrap," it
said.

Pakistan's Sullied Shrines
Sectarian violence targets Karachi's mosques
BY TIM MCGIRK

Monday, Jun. 07, 2004

Karachi's mosques offer an oasis of shade and tranquility in this sweltering
city. But fewer Karachiites are responding to the muezzin's call to prayer
these days. The city is experiencing one of its periodic spasms of vengeful
warfare between extremist members of Islam's Sunni and Shi'a religious
sects. Mosques are a favored target.

The violence erupted early last month when 32-year-old Sunni police trainee
constable Akbar Niazi wired himself with explosives and blew up the Haideri
mosque, killing himself and more than 24 Shi'ites. Next to die was radical
Sunni Muslim cleric Mufti Nizamuddin Shamzai, 51, who was gunned down on May
30 while driving to his Binori Town mosque and seminary. The following day,
a suicide bomber set off a blast that shattered the dome of the Shi'ite Ali
Reza mosque, killing 21.

Strife stemming from ancient religious rivalry is depressingly familiar to
Pakistan. Human-rights activists say that since the mid-'80s, more than
4,000 people have been killed in Sunni-Shi'ite feuds. Last year, for
example, Sunni and Shi'ite gunmen marked each other's doctors and lawyers
for assassination. President Pervez Musharraf waved off calls for the
federal government to step in to curtail further bloodshed, saying he would
refrain from "panic reactions." Fearing more attacks, a banker says he won't
let his boys attend Friday sermons: "It's better to miss your prayers than
to lose a son."
