FAISALABAD, Nov 18: A female dacoit and her accomplice gunned down a youth on offering resistance in People's Colony here on Wednesday night.

Reports said the dacoit along with her masked accomplice intercepted trader Sheikh Siddique and his wife and tried to loot cash and gold ornaments from them in D-Grounds. Meanwhile, Muhammad Imran, son of Siddique, also came. The boy overpowered the male dacoit and raised an alarm. Both the gangsters opened fire on Imran killing him on the spot. The assailants fled from the scene.

CLASH: Dozens of people of nomad families resorted to aerial firing and attacked a policy party when the raiding team rushed to Chak No. 476 after a clash between their two groups on Wednesday night.

Reports said two gypsy families clashed with each other and traded fire which created harassment in the village in Samundri police limits. The police rushed to the spot and arrested some of the nomads.

In the meantime, supporters of the arrested men misbehaved with the police and got their people freed.

Saddar police have registered a case against Binyamin, Abdul Ghafoor, Noor Muhammad, Ajmal, Ismail, Umer Din, 20 women and some unidentified nomads.
