At least three Pakistanis were gunned down and two other suffered severe injuries on Wednesday when Iranian border forces opened fire on a group of Pakistanis entering into the Iranian territory without valid travel documents. One of the slain was said to be a close relative of NWFP Chief Minister Akram Khan Durrani. Earlier, on September 8, the group of 21 Pakistanis entered the Iranian territory via Mandbalo and reached Iranian village Chahara Bahar, where Iranian forces considered them to be smugglers and opened reckless firing on their vehicle killing Khan Muhammad, Gul Muhammad and another Pakistani who could not be identified. Two of them were seriously injured.
