Four Men Die After Billboard Touches Electric Wires in Lahore

LAHORE – A tragic incident happened in Lahore when a metal billboard touched electric wires, causing the death of four men due to electric shock.

Officials said the iron signboard was installed on a shop and came into contact with overhead electricity wires. This led to the electrocution of the men who were trying to remove it.

According to eyewitnesses, the Punjab Enforcement and Regulatory Authority (PERA) had told the shop owner to take down the signboard. The shopkeepers could not find an electrician and decided to remove the signboard themselves to avoid a police case.

Sadly, four people lost their lives. They have been identified as:

Nadeem, 45 years old

Noman, 25 years old

Awais, 26 years old

One man is still unidentified
