hamid mir
Prominent TV anchor Hamid Mir is in a Karachi hospital when gunmen opened fire on his car Saturday afternoon. Mir's car was ambushed by attackers, a minimum of a number of whom were riding motorcycles, in line with native media reports.

Details concerning the attack are still rising. Citing police, Mir's broadcast network, Geo TV, says he came across a hospital in crucial condition when being shot thrice within the leg and body part. Mir's driver escaped large injury; the gunmen stay at large.
"Mir is now reported  to have regained consciousness and hospital administration says his condition is out of danger," Pakistan's Dawn news service says.
Mir's brother, Amir, tells Geo TV that before the attack, Mir told him that an effort on his life might return from among a part of Pakistan's government — specifically from among its administrative body, ISI.
Amir Mir added that his brother "had recorded a video message and sent it to the Committee to guard Journalists."
The international intelligence agency has denied any involvement, and Pakistan's leaders have condemned the attack, the country's specific apse says:
"Both the President and therefore the Prime Minister condemned the attack.
"Later, the military condemned the attack prayed for his well being and fast recovery.
"According to a press release of Inter-Services PR representative, an independent inquiry should right away be applied to determine facts. The advocate added  that allegations against international intelligence agency or head of international intelligence agency with none basis are highly unfortunate and dishonorable."
The incident has given new fuel to associate outcry in Islamic Republic of Pakistan over attacks on journalists. From capital of Pakistan, NPR's Philip Reeves filed this report for our news unit:
"Hamid Mir is one among Pakistan's known — and disputable — journalists, and one amongst the few to interview Osama bin Laden.
"His employer, Geo TV, says four men on motorcycles opened fire on Mir's car as he was going from Karachi airport to the workplace.
"Attacks and intimidation against Pakistan's journalists are alarmingly common. 3 weeks past, gunmen pumped up bullets into another TV anchor's automobile in city, killing the driving force.
"In January, 3 media employees in Karachi were shot dead. Pakistan's government has secure higher security for the media: it will currently face supplementary pressure to hold these through."
A colleague says he in brief spoke to Mir by phone, as the attack was happening.
"Geo News Islamabad bureau chief, Rana Jawad aforesaid Hamid Mir spoke to him once being attacked and aforementioned that the gunmen were following him and continued  to fire on the car," Geo TV reports.

The broadcaster adds that a trial was created on Mir's life in 2012, when explosives were found to possess been placed below his car.
