SUKKUR    -     Dr Ajmal Sawand, a professor at IBA Sukkur, was killed on Thursday by armed Sundrani tribesmen near Ghora Ghat police station over an honour kill­ing dispute, said Kashmore Kandhkot Police. He died on the spot when assailants opened fire on his car. He was travelling from Sukkur to his village Shalu Khan. According to the Police, Dr Sawand had gone to inspect some of his lands in Kandhkot’s katcha area. A Sandrani tribesman was murdered there two days earlier, said local police. According to the police, the Sandranis thought that a Sawand tribesman was behind it and so they targeted Dr Ajmal just because he happened to be a Sawand himself. Sawand did his PhD in Computer Science in France and he was serv­ing as a Deputy Director at Sukkur IBA University. The tribal dispute between Sawand and Sandrani tribes started three years ago over honour killing.
