THREE DECLARED POs: Additional Sessions Judge Chaudhary Imtiaz Ahmed on Friday declared three persons as proclaimed offenders (POs) for their alleged involvement in a murder case.
The accused, Noor Syed, Kabul Khan and Ajab Noor, allegedly murdered Lal Khan on October 23, 1998 and had not been arrested so far. The Ganjmandi police had registered an FIR against the accused on the complaint of victim’s brother, Nazeer Khan. The motive behind the murder is said to be old enmity.
According to the complainant, his brother had been working in Railways workshop for the last five years. On October 23, 1998 he was at work, when the three accused arrived at the scene and shot him dead.
When Ganjmandi police failed to nab the killers, Nazeer Khan moved the court, which issued arrest warrants against them.
