At least three persons were killed when unidentified assailants opened fire at their vehicle in village Kot Azam in the jurisdiction of Gomal Police station, police said Tuesday. Muhammad Zaman s/o Noor Zaman Mahsood, Aziz Ur Rehman s/o Azizullah Bitani and Afsarullah s/o Ajab Khan Kundi were traveling in a pick-up car bearing registration number PK0054 Sindh to Kot Azam from Sur Qamar when unidentified assailants opened indiscriminate fire at their vehicle near Nai Abadi Kot Azam leaving all three on board dead.
The culprits managed to escape from the scene after committing the crime. The dead bodies were handed over to the heirs after postmortem at District Headquarters Hospital Tank. Police have registered a case of triple murder against unknown murderers at Gomal Police Station and started investigation to arrest the killers.
Meanwhile, another citizen was deprived of his motorcycle in Tank city. Unknown robbers lifted 2018 model Honda 125 cc motorcycle of one Mahbood Khan s/o Aqal Khan after he parked his motorcycle outside a Hotel at Adda Bazar. An FIR of the motorbike theft was registered in the city police station.
The excessive thefts and number of other crimes in the district have added to the worries of citizens while the police do seem to completely fail to expose the motorcycle lifter gang and provide security of life and property to the citizens.
