KKH BLOCKED : Villagers protest killing of ‘missing person’

ABBOTTABAD: Villagers took to the streets against the killing of Gul Khan who went missing nearly six weeks ago.

Seven people barged into his house in the middle of the night and abducted him, his family alleged.

One of the abductors told the family he was being taken to a police station for investigations. The charges against Khan were not disclosed. His relatives had tried to trace him, but did not manage to do so.

On Monday afternoon, however, his body was found in the limits of Attock police station. Following this, the angry villagers protested against the killing and temporarily blocked the Karakoram Highway.
