TIL Desk/World/Islamabad/ Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Tuesday denounced the killing of four members of a Pakistani-origin Canadian family in Canada, saying this “act of terrorism” reveals the growing “Islamophobia” in Western countries.
On Sunday, a 20-year-old man, wearing a vest like body armour, slammed a pickup truck into a Pakistani family of five, killing four of them, in what police allege was “a planned, premeditated act motivated by hate”, according to media reports from Canada.
The incident happened near the intersection of Hyde Park Road and South Carriage Road when the Muslim family was out for a walk in the evening.
A black pickup truck driven by Nathaniel Veltman mounted the curb of a busy London intersection and struck a family of five as they waited to cross the street. The driver sped off, leaving a scene of chaos and tragedy, the report said.
