[Dawn] A suspected gangster was killed in a shoot-out with Rangers in Lyari ...one of the eighteen constituent towns of the city of Karachi. It is the smallest town by area in the city but also the most densely populated. Lyari has few schools, substandard hospitals, a poor water system, limited infrastructure, and broken roads. It is a stronghold of ruling Pakistan Peoples Party. Ubiquitous gang activity and a thriving narcotics industry make Lyari one of the most disturbed places in Karachi, which is really saying a lot....
on Friday night.
According to a text message sent by Rangers, gangsters opened fire on the Rangers personnel when they entered a locality during a targeted operation in Lyari.
The paramilitary force returned the fire wounding a suspect, Fareed alias Tunda. He was taken to the Civil Hospital where the he died during treatment.
The suspect was said to be a notorious gangster wanted in several criminal cases.
