MANSEHRA, May 28: The body of an NGO worker was found in Harayala village on Monday. Relatives identified the victim as Mohammad Wajid, who worked for the birth registration campaign.

Unidentified assailants reportedly opened fire on Mr Wajid as he was going home on Sunday night. Officials say he must have died on the spot.
