Did Pakistan Hire A Hitman To Kill "Outspoken" Blogger? He Says Yes

Supermarket worker Muhammed Gohir Khan, 31, was found guilty of plotting to kill Ahmad Waqass Goraya after being recruited by middlemen apparently based in Pakistan.

An exiled political blogger on Friday accused Pakistan of being behind a plot to kill him after a would-be hitman was convicted in a British court.

Supermarket worker Muhammed Gohir Khan, 31, was found guilty of plotting to kill Ahmad Waqass Goraya after being recruited by middlemen apparently based in Pakistan.

The judge in Kingston-upon-Thames, southwest London, adjourned the case for sentencing on March 11, with Khan facing up to life in prison.

Khan, from east London, was charged in June last year with conspiring with unknown other people to murder Goraya in the Netherlands.
