Actor Muneeb Butt has expressed deep sorrow and regret over the brutal murder of members of the Sabri Qawwal family and strongly criticized human rights activists and social leaders.

 

In a video statement shared on social media, Muneeb Butt said, “The brutality with which members of the Sabri family were targeted is not only unbearable but also the worst example of cruelty against humanity.”

 

He questioned, “Where are all those voices on such tragedies, those human rights organizations and social activists who raise their voices even when terrorists are killed?”

 

The actor stressed that speaking up for the oppressed should not be selective. “Raising your voice in favor of the oppressed should not be only for specific situations or purposes, but it should be spoken on every occasion when the sanctity of human lives is violated,” he said.

 

Muneeb Butt added, “Three members of the Sabri Qawwal family were killed. What will happen to their families? They were also artists from Karachi like us, who were going to perform to share love.”

 

He demanded, “There should be a transparent investigation into the incident, and the culprits should be punished severely so that no artist or common citizen is subjected to such cruelty in the future.”

 

The video statement is going viral on social media, and a large number of users have expressed support for Muneeb Butt’s demands.

 

The incident he was referring to took place earlier this week in Balochistan.

 

At least three members of a Qawwali group from Karachi were martyred, while seven others were injured in a gun attack on a passenger coach near Niemurgh Cross in the Kalat district. They were en route to Quetta to perform at a cultural event when unidentified gunmen opened fire on their vehicle.

 

Media reports citing local officials and the provincial government spokesperson confirmed the attack, blaming it on Fitna al-Hindustan, a proxy group allegedly backed by India, which has been involved in multiple such attacks in the region.
