DERA ISMAIL KHAN: Fear gripped the people of Korai village here on Tank road after they found three graves in the village cemetery opened and the bodies missing from there.

Malik Sanaullah, a local social worker, and others told mediapersons that three graves in the Siddique Ahmad Cemetery were found opened and the bodies removed from them. They said that they had found the remains of the body of a girl child and shrouds lying in the fields of Korai village.
