Police recorded on Wednesday a first information report (FIR) on the attack of the Karachi Lawyers Association (KBA), Aamir Nawaz Warraich, outside a coffee in II Chundrigar Road the night before.

“The CCTV images obtained from the place showed that when it landed from the car, five suspects traveling two motorcycles apparently chasing it began to hit and fled it,” said the excavation.
The FIR, a copy of which is available with Dawn.comWarraich said, he declared at the Karachi Press Club on Sunday that the KBA would block the Sindh-Punjab border on April 12 if the controversial project of the channel did not stop.
The next day, he claimed that he received a call from an unidentified number that he did not respond. On Tuesday, he received a call from an unidentified number, where the person he called said: “You are busy, therefore, I will speak with you later,” according to the FIR.
He said he left his law camera on Tuesday, dropped a colleague near his house and went to Cafe Bogey
Warraich said a motorcyclist tried to stop him near the Tibet Center in Ma Jinnah Road, adding that when he arrived at Café Bogey, five/six suspects not identified attacked and began hitting him.
The FIR added that the suspects hit their head and face with forceful instruments to kill him, and also stole the phone, the wristwatch and the Warraich car keys.
The president of the KBA said that through social networks, he learned that a woman and her two brothers planned the attack with the unidentified suspects. He said that the same woman had issued additional threats of violence and wanted legal actions against her, her brothers and her assailants.
Warraich said the attack was aimed at preventing its opposition to the channel project.
Part of the green initiative of Pakistan, the Cholistan Canals project aims to water a total of 4.8 million acres (1.9 million hectares) of sterile land through the construction of six channels, two in Sindh, Baluchistan and Punjab. Five of these channels will be built on the Indo River, while the sixth will build along the Sutlej River, supplying approximately 4,120 cusecs of water to water Cholistan’s desert in Punjab.
Punjab Prime Minister Maryam Nawaz, and the head of the Army staff gene, also opened the ambitious Cholistan project to water the lands of South Punjab on February 15 in the middle of a public uproar and strong reserves in Sindh. What is being acclaimed as a change of play for Punjab has triggered a fuss in Sindh, which believes that the scheme will disturb the ecological balance in the province and deprive it of its mandatory water part. The Sindh Assembly unanimously approved a resolution against the construction of six new channels on the Indo River in March.
The KBA has also been one of the most important lawyer associations to oppose the project.
