LAHORE – Two police personnel, including Sub-Inspector Adeel and Constable Asad, were martyred in firing allegedly carried out by Rehan Butt and three unidentified suspects in Lahore’s Lari Adda area, police said.
According to police, Sub-Inspector Adeel had previously killed a notorious shooter, Faizan Butt, during a police encounter.
