He was rushed to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, where he died of wounds.
In addition, Haider’s gunman Tariq Khan and a 16-year-old party’s activist were also killed in the armed attack.
Interior Minister Rehman Malik condemned the incident, urging the MQM to maintain calm. He termed the targeted killings a plot to destabilize the country.
