KARACHI/Shikarpur: Shikarpur police on Monday claimed to have arrested a tribal chief along with his two sons in Karachi on charges of patronising kidnappers in the kutcha area of Shikarpur district.
The development comes a day after two policemen, a private guard of an SHO and a private photographer working with police were killed in an anti-bandit operation in the Garhi Tegho area of Shikarpur. Police had claimed to have killed six kidnappers during the operation.
Shikarpur police in collaboration with local police conducted a raid in Karachi’s Gulistan-i-Jauhar area and detained Sardar Tegho Khan Teghani along with his two sons Imran and Abdul Fatah, a police spokesperson confirmed.
The arrests were made after a First Information Report was lodged at Napur Kot police station in Shikarpur against nominated kidnappers on charges of terrorism and murder of three police personnel during the operation on May 23.
