  • On September 30, 1988, dozens of people, mostly Muhajir, were killed in Hyderabad, Sindh in what was known as "Black Friday". Death tolls ranged from 1000+ to 1050+ , and the attacks are said to have been coordinated and carried out by militants of the Sindh Taraqi Pasand Party. Unidentified gunmen opened fire on large crowds of innocent bystanders, including women and children in Latifabad near Pakistan Army deployments in Board Stadium unit No.6. The whole city of Hyderabad was left without any security for to kill as many people as possible. Sindhi nationalists, including (Sindhi Baloch) Qadir Magsi (SOB) Pakistan Army Pet Project and the Sindh Taraqi Pasand Party, were widely seen as responsible for the massacre. The following day there was ethnic rioting which killed at least 1000+ people. A curfew was enforced in both Karachi and Hyderabad. In total over 1000+ people died in the span of two days. MQM, the largest Muhajir party, would broaden its scope as a party of the middle class following this incident, emphasizing the common physical suffering of the local Muhajir community in parallel to its socioeconomic decline.
