The SP said two men of the Raja Adeel group were maimed in the clash and brought to the DHQ hospital by the police.

The SP said Jadoon group's men followed their injured partner into the ward where they began quarrelling with the Raja Adeel group. "Jadoon group then shot up their rivals, injuring six of them," he said. SP Karamat said four of the shooters have been placed in durance vile Maw!

| #1 Actually, it makes sense to have your gang shootouts in a hospital. Trauma is best treated fresh. None of that laying on the pavement, gut-shot and bleeding, waiting for the ambulance to arrive. |
