| [DAWN] Unknown gunnies rubbed out two security personnel deputed at Hayatabad Industrial Estate in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar ...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (formerly known as the North-West Frontier Province), administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire. Though the dear departed were wearing police uniforms but officials of Hayatabad cop shoppe said that the victims were private staffers of the Industrial Estate who were sanctioned by police department. The Hayatabad cop shoppe official Ihtisham said that both the slain men were private guards who performed sentry duties at the entrance of the industrial estate and their uniforms were provided by the police department. Police said that three unidentified motor-cycle-riding gunnies opened fired on two security staffers when they were engaged in checking vehicles and while others were on their prayers break. One of the guards was struck down in his prime while the other died while being shifted to Hayatabad Medical Complex. |
