People chant slogans during a protest rally in Karachi on January 11, 2013, against the bomb attacks in Quetta. Extremist bomb attacks killed 125 people in one of Pakistan's deadliest days for years, raising concerns about rising violence in the nuclear-armed country ahead of general elections. – Photo by AFP
In solidarity with the families and friends of the victims who were killed in the January 10 Quetta blasts, hundreds protested in Karachi, Islamabad and Quetta itself condemning the mass killing of Shias.
A sit-in at Quetta’s Alamdar Road is also being staged by hundreds of people from the Hazara community for over 20 hours so far. The participants of the sit-in have refused to bury the dead until the army takes control of the city.
Meanwhile, the government and political parties have largely remained silent on the violent killing of more than a hundred Pakistanis on Thursday.
In a development, the prime minister has given policing power to the Frontier Corps in Quetta to assist the Balochistan government in maintaining peace in the provincial capital. – Photos by Agencies

I question all Pakistani Shia’s about their response to the ongoing genocide of Shia muslims in Pakistan. Only “hundreds” came out in different cities to protest the killings in Quetta. Shame on you for those who did not join the true shias. “God does not change condition of people until they change what is in themselves” Quran 13:11.
Its a matter of time when your family members will suffer the same trauma, Insha Allah and by the will on Imam-e-AakhiruzZaman.
