[DAWN] DERA GHAZI KHAN: Four coppers were killed in an encounter with a gang at Yaroo Khosa in the Kot Mubarik police remit on Friday.

The police higher-ups constituted three teams under the supervision of the Sadar DSP to raid a house where Ladi gang had taken refuge.

The police said Ibrahim Ladi, Rabnawaz Gajni and others opened fire on the raiding team which retaliated.

They said ringleader Haider Esani, who had hidden himself in a metal box, showered the police with bullets as a result of which Irfan and Noor Mohammad of the Elite Force, Kot Mubarik SHO Shafeeq Malghani and Faizul Hasnain of the district police were maimed. The four coppers later gave up the ghost and Haider Esani also was killed in retaliatory fire.

APP adds: Sadar Circle SDPO Malik Ijaz Ali was injured and shifted to District Headquarters Hospital.

I don't think we've heard the last of this. The hiding in a metal box trick is a massive escalation.
