KARACHI: A Balochistan trader was found shot dead near the Northern Bypass on Tuesday, police said.
They said the body of 36-year-old Abdul Kareem was found at a desolate place within the remit of the Mochko police station. The victim was identified as a resident of Hub with a business of auto products.
“The local police were approached by his family on Monday with complaints that he had not returned from Karachi where he was on a business visit,” said an official at the Mochko police station. “An initial probe suggested that he came to Karachi to collect money from his business associates.
