Sectarian or not

Haider was a Shia and most killed are Pashtuns (sunni). Rehman Malik has described these riots as sectarian. I feel it is appropriate to call these riots Sectarian.--Wikireader41 (talk) 17:27, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That is my impression also. With attribution to notable figures we could write this in the article, sure. __meco (talk) 08:18, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
