Police said Ghulam Abbas, along with two other armed persons, shot dead Ahmad Yar at Chah Sarangwala, Mauza Asian, on March 12, 2013, over enmity.

He was declared a proclaimed offender and started work in a Wazirabad kiln as guard.

On the directions of District Police Officer Anwar Khatran, the Saddar police started work on old cases and tracked down Abbas.
