Police officer Khalid Awan said that the embassy's security officials have visited the crime scene.
The motive of the attack however, is still unclear. Baig belonged to the minority community, Ismaili, which has recently been the target of sectarian violence in Pakistan.
Half a dozen gunmen inside a bus in Karachi killed at least 45 people, including women and children, belonging to the Ismaili community, on May 13 this year.
