According to the complainant, who’s name is Sohail, he and his friend Mustakim had visited Sohail’s ex-wife Ishrat’s place on Monday, where they found her with current boyfriend Yaseen.
Yaseen did not like Sohail and his friend showing up at Ishrat’s place, and later an argument ensued between them. Yaseen fired three rounds, and one of them hit Mustakim on the chest.
He was rushed to the Jag Pravesh Chandra hospital, where doctors declared him brought dead. Meanwhile, the police informed that Sohail has previous involvement in some cases, which is being verified.
