On Monday, a young boy, identified as Hussnain Abbas, 21, was shot dead during a snatching within the jurisdiction of the Golra Police Station.
According to the details, Hussnain Abbas was walking with three of his cousins when two unidentified men on a motorcycle approached them and attempted to steal the group’s mobile phones.
While fleeing the scene, one of the snatchers fired directly at Hussnain Abbas, 21, striking him in the stomach. He was taken to PIMS Hospital in an injured state, where he died from his injuries.
The police have started an investigation into the incident and will be checking the area’s CCTV cameras as well to track down the suspects. A First Information Report (FIR) has been filed against the unknown perpetrators.
The crime rate in Islamabad has increased several times in recent weeks, and the Federal Government has come under fire for diverting the country’s police resources to politics following the murder of Hussnain Abbas last night.
The rape of a girl in a park in Islamabad’s Sector F-9 recently went viral on social media. The suspects were tracked down and killed in an exchange of fire at Sector D-12, according to police.
