LODHRAN:
A man was killed in Dunyapur railway station limits. The victim’s step-brother, Muhammad Saeed, lodged a complaint at the police station stating that Ghulam Farid used to work in Durkan.

On the day of the incident, a man named Mustafa called him to his home to fix a charpoy. When Ghulam Farid asked to be paid for his labour, Mustafa became enraged and attacked him with an axe, injuring him in the process. When Ghulam Farid was lying on the floor, Mustafa and his accomplices doused him in petrol and set him on fire. Meanwhile, the victim’s step-brother rushed to the scene of the crime. However, the accused managed to escape.
