PakistanSindh government to appeal against SC’s ruling over Abbas Town carnage

KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah said on Thursday that they would file an appeal against the Supreme Court’s order over Abbas Town carnage as it did not hear the version of the Sindh govt and IGP Sindh before issuing its verdict, Dispatch News Desk (DND) reported.
