PML-N MNA Muhammad Farooq’s relative Mushtaq Ahmad was gunned down and two others injured in Miani village.
A PML-N activist was brawling with a PTI worker when Mushtaq jumped in to end the fight. However, Mushtaq was killed and Ashfaq Ahmad and Ali Haider were injured when gunshots were fired.
An eyewitness claimed that PTI Councillor Muhammad Rashid and his brothers were responsible for the incident, but PTI workers blamed PML-N activists for it.
Meanwhile, another PTI activist injured in the LG elections on Saturday succumbed to his injuries at a hospital. The D-Type Colony police have entered 17-year-old PTI worker Adnan’s murder in the case already registered against PML-N’s federal minister Abid Sher Ali, MPA Tahir Jamil, Sohail, Manzoor Jutt, Malik Asif, Tahir Awan, Qayyum, Shehzad and 25 others.
They were nominated for murdering Muhammad Mubashar and injuring five others – Irfan, Ahmad Raza, Abdul Razzaq, Faryad and Adnan – over the defeat of their candidate in the LG polls.
