SHANGLA: The police on Wednesday arrested four men over a murder in Brabro area in Puran tehsil here.

The suspects including Amir Bacha, Jan Bacha, Sher Rehman and Pir Bacha were produced in a news conference.

Aloch police station SHO Khurshid Ali said the arrests came on the complaint of a woman, who reported the murder of her father, Mohammad Qasim (Shano), by neighbours over an old enmity on April 22.

He said the police held the suspects in separate raids and seized a 32-bore pistol used for the murder.

The SHO said further investigation into the murder was under way.

Meanwhile, the Shangla administration on Wednesday notified the new price of a 100 gram roti at Rs15 citing the decline in flour rate as the reason.

It asked nanbais across the district to follow the new rate and directed assistant commissioners to ensure compliance with the notification.
