Gunmen shot dead four persons and wounded two others, due to old enmity, outside the court of the Additional Sessions Judge, Kharian, on Wednesday. The culprits fled from the scene after the incident, a private TV reported.
According to police, in an old feud between Shahid and Khalid groups in the nearby village Chhokar Kalan, Khalid was killed a few months ago, and Shahid's brother Tahir and others were arrested in the murder case. On Wednesday, Shahid had come for hearing of the case. The rival group's gunmen ambushed his car outside the court building and killed four persons in the vehicle. They were Muhammad Ashraf, Usman, Taskeen Ashraf, and an unidentified man.
