KHUZDAR: Two leaders of the National Party were shot dead near Naal, in Khuzdar district, on Tuesday evening.

According to Levies officials, Ataullah Sajdi and Muhammad Saddiq Samalani were attacked when they were going to Gerasha from Naal along with two other party men.

The attackers intercepted their vehicle near Badrang and opened fire on the victims after forcing them to disembark.

“The attackers identified the men before killing them,” the officials said, adding that those accompanying them had been left unhurt.

Levies personnel took the bodies to a hospital and later handed them over to the relatives of the deceased.
