The area of 431/GB in the jurisdiction of the Tandlianwala Police Station was shaken with horror and disbelief over a triple murder incident.
Police identified the deceased as Noor Ahmed alias Bugga, 32, Shamsher, 45, and Rubina Bibi, 32.
They said all three were relatives.
Another member of the household, Zarina, 19, sustained gunshot wounds and was taken to the hospital by the rescue services.
Police said that the alleged assailants were none other than the slain people’s neighbours.
Police said that Noor Ahmad alias Bugga had found that someone had stolen some parts of his rickshaw.
They said Bugga asked his neighbour Shahid about the incident of theft, and Shahid apparently misconstrued it as an allegation. It was too much for Shahid to stomach and he flew into a rage.
Police said Shahid, along with four others, got themselves armed, barged into the house of Bugga and allegedly opened fire on the people present in the household.
They said that Noor Ahmad, Shamsher and Rubina Bibi died on the spot.
