A man identified as Nawazish Ali, a resident of Gatwala, was shot and killed by his sons over a land dispute.

The dispute had been ongoing for nine months. The sons opened fire on their father, causing fatal injuries. A police team, including Madina Town SP Saad Arshad took the body into custody and sent it to a hospital for post-mortem.

The suspects fled from the spot after then murder and the police started a search operation to arrest them.

Regional Police Officer Dr Abid Khan directed the SP of Madina Town to submit a report and arrest the suspects immediately. The police were raiding the suspects' possible hideouts to arrest them.

Earlier in August, a dispute over a luxury car worth Rs130 million allegedly led to the orchestrated murder of Dr Shahid Siddiqui, a founding member of PTI and the owner of a private hospital, by his own son.

Qasim Shahid, Dr Siddiqui's son, is currently in the custody of the Organised Crime Unit (OCU) after police collected substantial evidence against him.

According to initial investigations, Qasim had followed his father on the day of the murder, including to the bank where Dr Siddiqui withdrew a significant amount of money.
