Footage of the incident spread on social media platforms, clearly depicting the deceased Muhammad Umar levelling the pistol to his head before the fatal discharge. <\/p>\n
Following the incident, Khurrianwala police conducted the necessary procedures and subsequently released the body to his family.<\/p>\n
