Steel Town SHO Shakir Ali said that a scuffle had broken out between the victim, Bashir Ahmed, 22, and the suspect policeman, Ali Raza, over some issue at a roundabout of Gulshan-e-Hadeed.

After an exchange of hot words, the constable opened fire on the youth, injuring him critically.

The police had arrested the suspect constable posted at the Anti-Encroachment Cell of the Sindh government.

Meanwhile,
