| Man found 'shot dead' in MPA's room |
| 2011-03-30 |
| [Dawn] On Monday, the hostel employees found the room locked from inside. As there was no response from Tarrar despite knocking at the door repeatedly, they called the police and informed them of the matter. Did Agatha Christie write this story? DSP Khwaja Zahid Abbas and SHO Mian Ameen, who reached the site along with other police officials, broke the door and found Mr Tarrar lying in a pool of blood with a bullet wound near his chin. A gun was lying near the body, the police said. "Ahah!" said Poirot. "Zat makes my little gray cells go snicker-snack!" On being informed of the incident by police, the dear departed`s family and the MPA also reached the hostel. "I must ask you not to disturb the body, madam!" Tarrar`s family told the police that he might have done away with himself over some unknown issue as he was looking dejected when he left his Hafizabad residence a week ago. The family also refused to lodge any complaint with the police. "Did he have any enemies you know of, madam?" Maybe one of them whacked him? Islampura police officials, however, termed the incident mysterious and refused to hand over the body to the family without an autopsy. "Muldoon! Get this body to Dr. Quincy! And make it snappy!" Quoting some employees of the MPA Hostel, the SHO said none of them heard the gunfire which had `complicated` the incident. The body had been shifted to the city morgue and further investigations were under way, he said, adding the autopsy report might help resolve the mystery. Yeah. I think that's why they do 'em... |
