Famous Qawwali singer Amjad Sabri shot dead in Pakistan

Amjad Sabri, one of Pakistan’s most famous Qawwali singers, was shot dead in Karachi this afternoon. He was 45.

According to reports, the bike-borne assailants, yet to be identified, opened fire at Sabri’s car.

The singer was on his way to participate in a TV channel’s Iftaar party when he was attacked.

He was shot thrice -- twice in the head and once on the ear -- and succumbed to his injuries in the hospital.

Sabri, son of renowned Qawwal Ghulam Farid Sabri, had created a controversy last year by claiming that the makers of Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan had used the Qawwali Bhar Do Jholi without obtaining its rights.
