Another DSP gunned down in Landhi
[DAWN] KARACHI: Another deputy superintendent of police was bumped off in a Landhi locality on Tuesday, officials said.

DSP Majeed Abbas, 53, was the third DSP targeted in a short span of four weeks in the city.

The officials said that DSP Abbas was driving a police mobile van and heading to his office when four gunnies riding two cycle of violences intercepted his vehicle in Zafar Town within the jurisdiction of the Shah Latif cop shoppe and fired multiple shots at him.

"He was hit by five bullets all fired from a very close range," said DIG-East Munir Sheikh. "The attackers most probably used 9mm pistols and rode away after the attack. Initial findings suggest that the assailants were four in number but we are not yet sure."

He said that some eyewitnesses saw four men on two motorbikes after they heard firing.

The maimed DSP died while being taken to the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre.
