Karachi:
A Pakistani court has sentenced to death a paramilitary soldier who shot dead an unarmed young man in the southern city of Karachi - an incident that was caught on videotape.
The court announced on Friday that six other men also accused in the June killing of Sarfraz Shah have been sentenced to life in prison.
The verdicts appears to be a relatively rare instance of Pakistani security forces being held publicly accountable in a case of brutality. But the decision is likely to be appealed.
