KHAIRPUR, Jan 22 Two young brothers went missing from a poultry farm near Ali Bux Kanhar village, Kingri taluka, on Thursday night.

Their relatives fear that they have been kidnapped from the farm.

Riaz,16, and Shahid, 12, went to sleep at their poultry but did not return home next morning.

Their relatives reached the poultry farm where they found some footprints, suggesting that they had been dragged away.

The relatives along with a large number of villagers and area police followed the footprints but lost them at some distance.

Ali Gohar Kanhar, uncle of the boys who is a local PPP leader, said that the footprints led to the kutcha area and disappeared near Indus River.

He said that his nephews had been kidnapped and demanded a police operation against bandits in the kutcha area.
