Clan festivities leave five dead in Balochistan
Five tribe members were killed and five others wounded when a gunfight between rival clans broke out after Eidul Fitr prayers on Wednesday, police said. The clans in Balochistan province had been feuding since a man and woman were killed two months ago following accusations that they had been having a relationship out of wedlock. Five people were killed and five wounded when two factions of the Magsi tribe clashed, said Jamil Asghar, deputy police chief in Jaffarabad, a district on the border of Balochistan and Sindh provinces. Police arrested two suspects and seized their Kalashnikov rifles.
