The police on Friday made 'significant' progress in the investigation into the murder of Sindh MPA Muhammad Aslam Abro's brother and nephew, who were killed earlier this week, by reaching the owner of the vehicle used in the shooting incident.
According to the details, the vehicle is legal and has been sold many times. The police also stated that the person who was using the vehicle was taken into custody by the authorities, adding that a total of two people have been detained by the police in the incident, and are being interrogated.
However, the case of the firing incident has not yet been registered as the police are waiting for the families of the victims to register a case. As per the initial investigation, the firing incident is indicative of personal enmity.
On July 26, Abro's brother and nephew were killed after motorcyclists opened fire on their vehicle in the city's Defense Phase VII near Ayesha Mosque, leaving two others seriously injured. SSP South Asad Raza confirmed that Aslam Abro's brother Akram Abro and nephew Shahryar Abro had died in the attack while the injured persons were identified as Abdullah Abro and Arshad Panhwar.
