In Malir, a 28-year-old man was killed days after he contracted a freewill marriage.

The area police said that gunnies fired at Shaharyar Nawaz near Naad-e-Ali bus stop. "He was hit by two bullets and was struck down in his prime," said Malir City SHO Inspector Ejaz Rajpar. "A few days ago, he married a girl against the will of his own and her family. We are not sure about the motive for the killing but that could be one of the reasons."

A young man was rubbed out allegedly by his friends in Landhi on Saturday, police said.

They said some youngsters were sitting at a place, commonly called Dera, near Bait-ul-Mukarram Masjid in the Landhi's Future Colony.

"The information is not complete because people inside the Dera at the time of incident bravely ran away after firing," said Sharafi Goth SHO Inspector Irfan Meo. "Sajjad Sher Muhammad was sitting with his friends at the Dera when he had a heated debate with other youngsters. The situation turned ugly when someone fired at him. He sustained three bullet wounds and died."
