DARGAI:

In a tragic incident at the Musa Mina Levies Checkpoint in Dargai Tehsil, two Levies personnel were killed and one was seriously injured after a fellow officer opened heavy gunfire on them.

According to details, Levies officer Saddam suddenly started shooting at his on-duty colleagues late at night for unknown reasons.

As a result, two personnel on duty, Havaldar Fazal Karim, a resident of Nashono Kandao, and Sepoy Riaz, a resident of Palo Naw Heroshah, were killed on the spot, while Sepoy Alam Zeb was seriously injured.

The suspect, Saddam, managed to flee the scene, but the Levies arrested his brother. All three victims were taken to Tehsil Headquarters Hospital Dargai, where the injured Alam Zeb was given initial treatment and then transferred to Peshawar.

In response to the incident, hundreds of angry residents from Heroshah and surrounding areas placed the bodies at the main square in Dargai Bazaar, blocking the road to all traffic until 10am. Sohail Khan, Mukarram Khan Saba, Mukammal Shah, and Advocate Fazal Ahad addressed the protestors.
