ISLAMABAD:
The stand off that had been created on Constitution Avenue in Islamabad after firing on the police from an armed, ended after almost six hours when Pakistan Peoples Party leader Zamrud Khan approached and tried to grab him, Express News reported.
The man armed with two sub-machine guns and accompanied with a woman and two children, whom he claimed were his wife and children, had driven into the middle of the Constitution Avenue on Thursday evening where he fired on the police and started a stand off.
Police tried to negotiate with the armed man, named Malik Sikander Hayat, and police and Rangers commandos surrounded his car while keeping their distance. During this period, the man periodically fired into the air to spread fear among a gathered crowd.
With negotiations going nowhere, MQM MNA Nabil Gabol tried to talk the man out of the act, but failed. Subsequently the PPP leader approached the guy and as he shook hands with the two children, he lunged at the gunman, but failed to grab him
This, though, caught the gunman off guard and he quickly peddled back, and raised his guns in the air. Soon after the commandos shot at the gunman, hitting him in the chest and leg. The woman accompanying him also received a gunshot wound.
