A series of shootings were reported across the Faisalabad district on Sunday, leaving two people killed and another injured. Investigations are underway into all three incidents.<\/p>\n

In the first incident, three suspects shot and injured a landlord when he resisted a robbery in Buchiana. Villagers managed to catch and restrain the three robbers, allegedly tortured them and then handed them over to the police.<\/p>\n

The three suspects allegedly stole a motorcycle from a constable on duty within the limits of Sadar Nankana Sahib Police Station. After reaching the limits of Buchiana police station, they stopped local landowner Muhammad Akbar near Chak No.563 GB and held him up. Resisting the bid, Akbar physically grabbed one of the suspects, but his accomplices allegedly shot and injured the landlord.<\/p>\n

Hearing the sound of the gunfire, villagers working in the fields surrounded the bandits and restrained them. At the same time, personnel from both Nankana Saddar Police Station and Buchiana police station reached the scene upon receiving information about the incident. The villagers handed over the three suspects to Buchiana Police, but Nankana Sadar police wanted to take the suspects into custody, due to which a conflict between the two police teams took place.<\/p>\n

Nankana police then took the three suspects in a mobile van, triggering strong protest from the villagers strongly protested, who demanded they hand over the suspects to Buchiana police. They also stopped the police mobile on Bachiana Nankana Road and demanded the handover of the suspects, upon which Nankana Saddar police handed over one suspect to the Buchiana police and arrested the two others as compromise.

Forty-year-old Ashfaq, a resident of Ghulam Rasool Colony, was allegedly shot dead by Hasnain Imtiaz and other four suspects as he was passing through the street.
