According to the police, a thorough search of the recovered black, double-cabin vehicle is underway, along with raids being conducted in PECHS, Kashmir Road, and adjoining areas.

South Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Javed Akbar Riaz said that four people were on their way from Do Darya in DHA Phase 8 in a car when they reportedly hit a heavy bike from behind and sped away.

A few moments later, their car was chased down and stopped by a double-cabin vehicle, which was escorting the injured biker, and was fired upon by people from inside the pickup.

As result of the firing a youth identified as Zafar 26, was killed while another Zaib was seriously injured.

The attackers fled the scene of the crime.

The police during a raid at Khalid Bin Waleed Road arrested five culprits involved in the firing and recovered arms from their possession.

The body and injured were shifted to hospital for medico-legal formalities. While legal procedures against the detainees were initiated.
