KARACHI, Nov 9: Three men were killed in the city in Friday.

A young man died when he was hit by a stray bullet in Landhi. Police said Nadeem Ahmed, aged 25, was flying a kite on the roof of his shop in Babar Market when a stray bullet hit him on the head. He was rushed to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre where doctors declared him dead on arrival.

Body of a man, with his hands tied and stuffed into a plastic bag, was found in Sector 12-L of Orangi Town.
