LAKKI MARWAT - Two real brothers killed each other over a petty issue in Mammakhel locality near Naurang Town on Sunday.
Police said both brothers - Muslim Khan and Hamidullah - were working in the fields when they started exchanging hot words over switching off thresher machine. Soon they took out guns and a bloody fight started. “Both Muslim Khan and Hamidullah received multiple bullet injuries and died on the spot,” police added.
Deceased Muslim Khan’s son Abdullah told Shaheed Asmatullah Khan Khattak police that he, along with his father, was busy in threshing harvested crop when Hameedullah came there and ordered to stop the thresher. “At the same time, he opened fire and killed my father Muslim Khan on the spot,” he claimed.
On the other side, deceased Hameedullah’s mother Shamim Bibi told police in her preliminary report that she and her son had gone to the field of Muslim Khan to discuss some matter with him. “But Muslim Khan and his sons Abdullah and Mustafa opened fire at us killing Hameedullah,” she maintained. Police said they had registered separate cases against the nominated accused under the relevant section of law and started investigation.
