The family had come to the daughter’s house to inquire about her repeated complaints of physical battery by her husband.
However, no sooner did Subhan Gul asked why do you beat up my daughter every day, Taj pulled out a pistol and shot him and Rasool Shah. Both the men died on the spot, while the assailant fled the scene.
The women folk however remained unhurt. Neighbours alerted the police who moved the bodies to hospital for legal formalities.
Taj however could not go much far and was tracked and arrested by Peshawar police.
