The event happened in the North Nazimabad neighbourhood of Karachi. A private hospital was held hostage by four dacoits, but the security guard resisted and killed one of the robbers. The dacoits’ shooting caused injury to a security guard as well.
The injured security guard was sent to the Abbasi Shaheed Medical Center.
Another incidence included two thieves who were apprehended in Karachi. Residents at Gulshan-e-Zia in Orangi Town allegedly captured two thieves. After residents severely tortured the robbers, they were turned up to the police.
