On Saturday 24th Ramzan, 25th February 1995 at close to 0710 PST, residents of the area were surprised to hear the sound of heavy gun fire. Some nearby residents saw a white car running speedily from the side of Mehfil-E-Murtaza in which about five people were sitting.
When the residents reached at the spot they saw bodies of 16 (sixteen) People lying one the floor of Imambargah with blooded bodies. Out of which two wounded person survived where as twelve died at the spot and two in the way to hospital.In Mehfil-e-Murtaza momineen were gathered after morning prayers for funeral arrangements of a person. At the same time four munafqeen (members of Sipah-e-Yazeed) entered in mosque and compelled all the momineen to stand in a row by the side of the wall of the Imambargah and after that spread bullets upon them. 130 empty covers of the bullets were found at the floor after this tragic incident.
All the momineen were shoot bullets on the upper portion of neck, which means that terrorists were well trained.
All the victims were attached by social and cultural organizations.
Incident of Mehfil-e-Murtaza happened on the same day and just after two hours of the incident of Imambargah Abul-Fazal-Abbas which is situated in P.I.B colony about 2 two km away from Mefil-e-Murtaza.
As usual all the terrorists are still at large because perhaps they are superior than law or have support of law enforcement agencies.
