Mr Mihalik has always maintained to me that he has represented suspects from various "factions" as he does not choose sides. He also said he was trying to maintain peace. If true, in doing so, he has been assassinated.

Top lawyer Pete Mihalik, who has represented, among others Ralph Stanfield, Irshaad Laher, was murdered this morning. Two years ago his associate Noorudien Hassan was killed. In between there have been several assassinations. This is an endless cycle of violence.
