Three security guards working at the agricultural property of tribal leader Sardar Akbar Khan Nasar were killed, while two others were allegedly abducted after unidentified gunmen launched an attack in Dukki, Balochistan.

Police said the armed assailants opened fire on the guards and later took Nadir Khan and Bashir Khan away before escaping from the area.

The three guards who died in the shooting were identified as Ghamni alias Ghano, Agha Jan and Izzat Khan.

Police and security personnel reached the location shortly after the incident and secured the area. The bodies were taken to District Headquarters Hospital Dukki for medico-legal procedures and were subsequently handed over to the victims’ families.
