At least two brothers were killed and two were injured after unidentified gunmen opened fire on their car near Guru Mandir in Karachi Thursday morning, police told Geo News.
According to Superintendent of Police Aleena Rajpar, the incident appears to be a case of target killing in which four suspects on two motorcycles targeted the car.
All the occupants of the car were identified as brothers and were commuting to the city court for a hearing, as per the police.
“Efforts are being made to find out the motive behind the incident,” said the police.
The SP added a 9mm pistol was used in the firing, while 18 bullet casings have been recovered from the incident’s site.
The occupants of the car, the police said, were shifted to a private hospital for treatment during which two of them died and the other two remain severely injured, while one of them is in critical condition. One brother, however, miraculously survived the attack, said the police official.
The police said it had collected evidence from the crime scene and added that the gun attack had been allegedly carried out due to enmity.
