An Afghan diplomat was shot dead on Monday in the Afghan consulate in Pakistan's southern city of Karachi in what was described as a personal dispute, Pakistani officials said.

"The guard used his automatic weapon, firing multiple bullets," Ismail said, adding that the guard was also an Afghan national.
Another police official, Deputy Inspector General Azad Khan, told reporters the shooting appeared to be the result of a personal dispute.
