He revealed during interrogation that he had given Rs 72000 to the deceased for an iPhone a few days ago but the deceased neither gave him the phone nor returned his money, said police.
On Friday evening, Khalid had gone to take his money back but Abdula denied it, which led to a hot argument and scuffle between the two. During the scuffle, Khalid wiped out his country-made pistol and shot Abdula, said police. Further investigation is on.
