In a similar incident in the same area, unidentified persons mounted on a bike shot dead a 40-year-old man. Police said that assailants pumped 13 bullets into the body of the deceased, who had been identified as Iftikhar, due to which he died on the spot. Family members of Iftikhar, however, alleged that the police had not handed over to them the body. They shouted, “Death to Shahdara police.”
They also demanded the inspector general of Police (IGP), Punjab to ensure the immediate arrest of the suspects.
