GUJRAT: A suspect accused of repeatedly raping his 14-year-old daughter was killed by his own accomplices who allegedly intercepted the police while taking him for recovery in Garjakh area of Gujranwala. The Gujranwala police reported that the suspect, identified as 'I', had been arrested in a case involving the alleged year-long rape of his daughter.

As the police team was transporting the suspect to a recovery facility, at least three armed accomplices ambushed them, opening fire in an attempt to free the suspect from custody. Consequently, the suspect was killed by the gunfire carried out by his own accomplices, while the other assailants managed to escape. The police have registered a case against the suspects and initiated an investigation.

In a separate incident within the jurisdiction of Saddar Wazirabad police, a notorious drug dealer named Tauseef Butt was also killed, again allegedly by his accomplices. According to the police spokesman, Tauseef Butt and his accomplices attempted to evade arrest by fleeing a police picket and opened fire on the personnel. During the ensuing exchange of gunfire, Tauseef Butt was killed, allegedly by one of his own accomplices, while the others managed to escape.
