SAHIWAL: A robbery suspect died in the Qaboola police custody in Arifwala on Saturday.

Police left the body of Fateh Muhammad at the THQ Hospital, Arifwala, and claimed that the 60-year-old was nominated in more than 42 cases across Punjab. Sources said Qaboola police had arrested him a few days back.

Earlier, he was brought to the Malka Hanse Police Station, Pakpattan, for investigation into a dacoity at the house of ex-parliamentary Pir Ahmed Shah Khagga.
