KARACHI:
Unidentified armed men barged into a house in the Khokhrapar area of Muslimabad on Thursday night and killed three men, who were allegedly part of a narcotics ring, police said.

"Haji Muhammad Aslam, 45, Muhammad Nadeem and Anwar were killed. Their bodies have been taken to Jinnah hospital,” DSP Khokhrapar Faqarul Islam said. He added that the attack seemed to be the result of infighting between gangs.


“Aslam was wanted in different cases," the officer further revealed, adding the victims were all present at Aslam’s residence when they were attacked.

Jeay Sindh Quami Mahaz (JSQM) commenting on the incident said the murdered men were its activists. "They have been killed by Lyari gangsters," said Asif Baladi, JSQM’s general secretary alleged. "Different groups are being propped up against each other. This is not good for the city."
