Subsequently, the attacker confessed his sinister intent to assassinate the controversial scholar.

A legal case has been filed, and ongoing investigations are in progress.

This incident marks the second attempt on Mirza’s life. The first occurred in 2017, and the most recent attack took place in 2021 when an armed individual assaulted Mirza while taking a photo with him. Mirza, a self-proclaimed Islamic scholar, sustained minor injuries and managed to escape.
