DADU: Four students suffered gunshot wounds when members of the Sindh Peoples Students Federation and a group of students clashed in Sindh University, Jamshoro campus, on Tuesday.

Sources said that the dispute started over a student’s attempt to talk to a girl in front of the Arts Faculty building and soon spiraled into a full-fledged clash in which both sides used sticks, bricks, stones and firearms.

The groups played hide and seek on the campus for several hours, waving arms and hitting each other like a scene from some action movie while local police were nowhere to be seen.
