Two young men were killed and two others injured in separate violent incidents across the metropolitan city on Thursday.
In the first incident, 32-year-old Arif was critically injured in a shooting in Faqir Colony, Orangi Town. He later succumbed to his injuries.
According to police, the fatal shooting is believed to have resulted from a turf war between two rival groups involved in drug trafficking. Arif, a known drug peddler, was reportedly shot by Tahir, who belongs to a rival gang of drug pushers.
Preliminary investigation suggests the involvement of rival factions from the Lyari gang war.
In a second incident, 23-year-old Mohammad Amir was shot dead in Mujahid Colony, Dalmia. The body was shifted to JPMC for a post-mortem examination.
According to Shahzad Ilyas, SHO of Aziz Bhatti police station, the killing appears to be linked to a long-standing family feud. Amir, a resident of Dalmia Street No 5 and originally from Khyber district of K-P, was shot twice in the neck and chest by two gunmen riding a motorcycle. Police recovered two 30-bore pistol shells from the crime scene.
In a third incident, 24-year-old Sohail was shot and injured during a quarrel in North Nazimabad, Block S.
