Mumtaz Qadri admits killing Governor Salman Taseer

 Malik Mumtaz Hussein Qadri, arrested in Islamabad (4 January 2011)

 

The bodyguard accused of shooting Pakistani governor Salman Taseer has confessed in court to the killing.
Malik Mumtaz Hussein Qadri told the Anti-Terrorism Court in Rawalpindi that he had acted alone in the attack.
He was whisked into court a day earlier than scheduled to prevent supporters showing up, correspondents say.
It comes a day after 50,000 protesters marched in Karachi against proposed amendments - backed by the slain Punjab governor - to the blasphemy law.
