SIALKOT: Five unidentified armed men allegedly shot dead three people, including two brothers, at their outhouse over an old enmity in village Ferozkey Nagra in Pasrur tehsil in the wee hours of Sunday.

Brothers Muhammad Imran, 32, and Akmal Shehzad, 35, along with their house help were milking buffaloes and cows at their outhouse when five unidentified armed men reached there and opened fire, killing the three men on the spot.

The suspects fled from the scene on motorcycles while firing in the air. Police suspected that an old enmity was the reason behind this triple murder.

On the report of Irfan, a third brother of two of the victims, Pasrur Saddar police registered a case against five people with no arrests.
