According to the police, a man, Syed Muhammad Taqi Shah, on 13th September 2019 went for some routine work in his fields near village Kotli Khawaja, in the limits of the Sabzpir police station, but his body was found in the fields the next day, 14th September 2019, with an electric wire, warped around his wrists.
Four persons namely, Zeshan, Rizwan, Murid Hussain, and Muhammad Waqar, who allegedly had been with the deceased Taqi Shah, had then informed the police that electrocution and resultant cardiac arrest caused his death after which the deceased was buried in a graveyard near the above-said village.
