  1. please make the corrections zains uncle was murdered not his brother and incident took place in z block near his house

  2. This was a very unfortunate incident, since this lad was someone I known personally, I am shocked on those who just killed a innocent guy just for the disputed land which was never theirs and we cannot even fight for our own property since we have been brought up like this were we have to steel things from others.

    Someone needs to take a notice for this, unfortunately he is a ordinary person due to which the case might not be taken seriously, but if he was a son of any politician then I am sure the prosecutors would have been produced over night.

    The killer is very influential who have police under control, even at the time of the murder of his uncle the case was still pending and our so called police just have 1 thing to do which is launching an FIR which is never resolved.

    We have to be honest to ourselves rather we earn earn haram for ourselves and our family.

    We want justice and murderer behind the bars.
