Two Suspects Killed in Shahdara During Police Operation

A spokesperson from the CCD (Counter Crime Department) said that an incident happened in Shahdara after the department got a report about two men on a motorcycle involved in street crime.

When the police went to the area to catch them, the suspects reportedly started shooting at the officers. The police shot back, and during the firing, both suspects — a father and his son — were badly injured. They died while being taken to the hospital.

The two men were identified as 55-year-old Fazlur Rehman and his 25-year-old son, Ameer Abbas. Their bodies were sent for post-mortem (medical examination after death).

According to the police, two other suspects managed to escape. The police also said that the two who were killed were wanted in many serious criminal cases. A special team has been formed to find and arrest the ones who escaped.
