| [DAWN] RAWALPINDI: A school principal was rubbed out while his brother-in-law was injured in an alleged murder incident on Tulsa Road on Wednesday night. Mufti Imran Farooq, who served as principal of Iqra School on Mubarak Lane, Adiala Road, was going to a filtration plant with his brother-in-law Musarat Hussain in his car. He was intercepted by two men on a cycle of violence, who opened fire. As a result, Mufti Imran was struck down in his prime while Musarat Hussain received a bullet injury to his leg. The dear departed and the injured were shifted to District Headquarters Hospital where Musarat is said to be in stable, pH balanced condition. "He was targeted but it is yet to be established whether it was an outcome of an enmity or a sectarian killing," City Police Officer (CPO) Humayun Bashir Tarar told Dawn. He further said the police were investigating whether the dear departed had any affiliation with a religious organization or was it an outcome of an old enmity. |
