ASSASSIN WANTED
 HOLY WAR" DECLARED

NEW DELHI. India, Oct. l6-tR-- Pakistan's Prime Minister and guid- ing light, Liaquat Ali Khan, was assassinated tonight by a man supporting the idea of Holy War" against India.
 Liaquat. 56. was shot twice--in the head and chest--and died in a hospital.
 The Pakistan office in London said the incensed crowd attacked the assassin "and tore him to pieces on the spot"
 The spokesman said the killer, named Khaksaw, evidently belonged to an extreme right-wing sect of the Moslem religion. This group has been active in the Punjab region, and has expressed it's dissatisfaction with "Liaquat's policy of modera- tion" toward India and other prob- lems, the Pakistan official said. The sect is led by a man named Alama Mashriqi and it favors "Jehad," or Holy War, against India on the Kashmir issue.
 The assassination brought the Moslem world to the brink of a new crisis at time the western powers are trying to shore up defenses there against the threats of Com munism.
