Malik Ameer pointed out that further investigation will be conducted after receiving the postmortem report and identifying the cause of the death. “It appears to be a case of suicide. The information given by Deputy Superintendent of Jail Rana Irfan Subhan regarding the incident has been recorded, while a formal case would be registered on receipt of the postmortem report,” he remarked.
Earlier on July 25, 2017, Dr Mahmood Aleem was gunned down when unidentified armed outlaws intercepted his vehicle near Allied More while he was on way home along with his brother after attending the clinic. The miscreants opened indiscriminate fire on them and as a result, Dr Mahmood Aleem was killed on the spot while his brother Babar Zafar suffered injuries.
