A Customs Intelligence team arrested three men from General Bus Stand after a gunbattle on Friday evening. A police official told Daily Times the police team tried to stop a bus but the driver didn't stop it. "The cops chased the bus, on which two armed men in the bus opened fire, injuring Aslam, Tufail and a passer-by." He said the police team aired a help message and police from nearby stations surrounded the bus at Azadi Chowk. The police shot the bus's tyres out and the driver had to stop the bus. The police arrested Sardar Khan, Azhar Gul and Zabit Khan and confiscated smuggled items including dry fruits, imported cloth, electronics and cosmetics worth Rs 2 million.Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2003-10-04 |
